Summary

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 34 A common operational tactic of Woke Marxists is to weave a long narrative arc about what's happening in society through media and education and then to give "proof of worldview" by plugging useful events into that mythology to spur mass line activism and direct action. That is, they fit events into narrative arcs that have been strategically laid ahead of time. If you can spot the narrative arcs and how they work, not only can you refute them, you can also predict what kinds of events would count as "worldview proof" and interrupt their success. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay breaks down the strategy and gives some useful advice for spotting and desynchronizing narrative arc fitting operations. Join him to learn to beat this tactic.
