You are the Target | James Lindsay | EP 367

Ep. 367
Dr. Jordan B. Peterson and Dr. James Lindsay break down how Marxism evolved from a singular ideology into a genus, spawning many oppressor/oppressed dogmas across modern culture such as equity, critical race theory, and queer theory. They trace these sub-Marxist doctrines back past fundamental narrative into the theological realm, and detail their utility in the acquisition of power. Dr. Peterson and Dr. Lindsay also discuss the Grievance Studies Affair, of which Dr. Lindsay was a co-author and which casts a spotlight on the Marxist capture of our academic and scientific institutions.
An author, mathematician, and political commentator, Dr. James Lindsay has written eight books spanning a range of subjects including education, postmodern theory, and critical race theory. Dr. Lindsay is the founder of New Discourses, an organization dedicated to shining the light of objective truth in subjective darkness. Dr. Lindsay is the co-author of “Cynical Theories: How Activist Scholarship Made Everything about Race, Gender, and Identity―and Why This Harms Everybody” and the author of “Race Marxism,” as well as, “The Marxification of Education.” Dr. Lindsay has been a featured guest on Fox News, Glenn Beck, Joe Rogan, and NPR, and he has spoken at the Oxford Union and the EU Parliament.

[@kristideeley]

I had no idea how badly I wanted this conversation to happen until just now. I am so beyond pleased.

[@dalelerette206]

Keep in mind that narcissism is when empathy is replaced with entitlement. I suppose one would think of a devouring parent when pathological narcissism sacrifices their own children to the glorification of their compassion - example: “Saturn Devouring His Son” by Francisco Goya depicts the Greek myth of the Titan, who fears that he would be overthrown by one of his children, so he ate each one of his children upon their birth." There is probably even a connection between the Satanic Poetry of Marx and the goals of the adversary, who seems to be the ultimate narcissist. Even the similarity between demons and narcissists probably has a common origin. Perhaps Marx's satanic poetry had something to do with power acquisition related to the adversary's rebellion in the Garden of Eden? You were in Eden, the garden of God; every precious stone adorned you: carnelian, chrysolite and emerald, topaz, onyx and jasper, lapis lazuli, turquoise and beryl. Your settings and mountings were made of gold; on the day you were created they were prepared. You were anointed as a guardian cherub, for so I ordained you. You were on the holy mount of God; you walked among the fiery stones. You were blameless in your ways from the day you were created till wickedness was found in you. Ezekiel 28: 13-15 (NIV) A tyrant's cruel treatment of citizens is evidence of wickedness, while literary antagonists like Shakespeare's Lady Macbeth and Voldemort from the Harry Potter series display their wickedness through many vicious actions. Wickedness is generally considered a synonym for evil or sinfulness. Among theologians and philosophers, it has the more specific meaning of a profound evil committed consciously and of free will. It can also be considered the quality or state of being wicked.

It really clicked for me when Lindsay said Marxism may very well be an heretical offshoot of Christianity through Hegel and in turn through Marx. That's the religious aspect I've felt all along through these post modern ideologies. I've been learning so much since 2020 and can finally understand and follow these conversations fully. I often get the side eye when I go into these topics because Marxism is very hard to explain and discuss with people without sounding like a lunatic. This has freed my mind.

Dr. Lindsay has a huge rabbit hole to go down. I think the most important ones to get as a foundation are the explanation of Hegel, Marxism as religion, and his series exposing how both are Hermetic and Gnostic, and what that means practically. That's 20 hours of listening right there. After you get that down everything makes more sense

[@armadaministries6283]

As a former hermetic gnostic I can attest this argument is absolute truth. I first observed this truth when converting to true Christian faith after a near death experience during which I encountered Jesus Christ. After my conversion I instantly saw the world without the scales over my eyes, and the obvious spiritual battle that has been taking place for hundreds of years is constantly repeating. That which has been done will be done again, and there is nothing new under the sun.

[@sagegallagher]

Did you catch that James said when he was proposing that the privileged be sent to the back, that they would talk over them and not let them finish their sentences. I think he was trying to subtly signal to JP to stop doing it to him!

[@newutopians]

I made this point in a separate comment: this is the first time with the many JP interviews I've seen where his interruptions really are a drag on the whole conversation. Sometimes his interjections expand the talk but most often in this case it's just him dragging a fascinating conversation back down to his typical interests, logos, religion, axioms. Poor JL - who we've all come to here to see - has to sit patiently and wait till he can speak again. Just like us. I wish JP had been more respectful. And silent.

Peterson taught at Harvard University and Lindsay is a mathematician with a PhD from Tennessee university. These are impressive academic credentials, moreover Lindsay with Pluckrose and Boghossian authored the so called Sokal squared hoaxes which showed how corrupted certain fields in academia have become (the grievances studies). Their conversation was fascinating since Lindsay has evolved from the new Atheist movement to critique the degeneration of the left with its obsession with identity politics. A new totalitarian impulse has made its way into the mainstream - just look how JK Rowling or Kathleen Stock have been treated. If in doubt listen to Konstantin Kisin Even in my field (dentistry) I have seen the infiltration of CRT.

NICE timestamping for others. I understand Lindsay is a mathematician who as an exercise tried to reverse engineer academic papers and wrote many “fakes” successfully. Almost like “mapping” the content of what get approved-then he determined which “words” meant pretty much the same thing - almost like a linguistic factor analysis that takes language and tries to treat the concepts as factors - I think a factor analysis model is more apt than “genus / species” but there isn’t really a way to map English to math - yet - which AI might “try”. Key issue between math and English - I say is no mathematicians argue about what an “=“ is - but the powerful will negotiate what “is” is to its benefit. Control the language. I disagree that it’s a theological infrastructure - it’s a “POWER” hierarchy - not a COMPETENCY one. Maybe a theological infrastructure implies DOGMA you cannot question but behind that is POWER decides - not “you”
