The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 186 The dialectic is ultimately the engine of all Marxist and Hegelian thought and also underlies Fascism and the conflict between Fascism and Marxism. It is also fundamentally Sociological Alchemy, as the Soviets both knew and admitted. Based on Marx's ideas about dialectical materialism as the fundamental law of all of Nature, including Man, the Soviets outlined three key dialectical laws and taught them to every school child and party member. First, there is the transformation of quantity into quality, and vice-versa. Second, there is the struggle and unification of opposites. Third, there is the "negation of the negation," which most people know as "problem, reaction, solution" in practice. In this episode of the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay introduces these three dialectical laws of Marxist and Soviet thought and brings them alive for you while comparing them to the social alchemy of George Soros and the ancient wizardry that tried to turn lead into gold.

A Trump directive, NSPM-7, reframes “anti-fascism” itself as a national security threat. Issued after the killing of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, the memo goes beyond condemning specific crimes. It collapses ideology, protest, and violence into a single category—casting beliefs labeled “anti-American, anti-capitalist, and anti-Christian” as inherently suspect.

The current state of global affairs is a mess, and we can no longer afford to sit on the sidelines after this truly hellish year. Putin's War in Ukraine poses a direct threat to all of Europe, and the ongoing Trade War with America has significant implications for our economy. As Trump becomes increasingly cruel and cornered by his comments about Rob Reiner, the allegations of the US murdering the men floating on pieces of a boat, and the Epstein Files release deadline, his actions and reports of the rising MAGA movement and Fascism in Canada cannot be ignored.Moreover, we are witnessing horrific events like the recent Anti-Semitic terror attack in Australia. At the same time, MAGA propaganda continues to infiltrate Canadian media, fueled by figures like Poilievre and his crew. The rampant corruption by Conservative Premiers, such as Smith and Ford, has left our Scandal Panel—comprising Keith Leslie and Mark Cripps—in a justified fury as we approach the holidays. (Apologies for all the swearing)However, amidst this darkness, there are glimmers of hope. The global resistance to tyranny and the calm, steady leadership from Premier Carney offer us a path forward. The panel also raises a toast to the courage and innovation of the Ukrainian people who are lighting the way for the free world.Canadians need to unite in the face of tyranny, and this panel is here to provide not just analysis, but laughter and wisdom as we seek to protect peace and democracy.Now is the time for you to take action. Subscribe, share, and leave your comments—we read them all! Together, we can work toward a brighter future for 2026. Let's not just hope for change; let's be the change we wish to see! #canada #ontario #poilievre #tradewar #trump #alberta #canadanews #canadastrong #elbowsup #carney #ukrainwar #ukraine #europe #forevercanadian Hosted on Acast.

At the end of World War II, much of the West stood in ruins. Europe's great powers were shattered, millions were dead, and political leaders searched for a framework that would prevent another civilizational collapse. What emerged was what R.R. Reno later described as the “postwar consensus”: an elite agreement to reorganize Western society around a single overriding moral imperative — to never again allow a figure like Adolf Hitler to rise.

Part 3: Nervous System Self‑Care In this episode of the series, I talk about WHY nervous system care matters right now. When we witness threatening events, our nervous system naturally activates — it's literally it's job to protect us. But when that state of activation sticks around — prolonged stress, fear, or hyper-vigilance — we stay stuck in fight‑or‑flight instead of coming back into rest, calm, and emotional safety. I share real, personal examples of what nervous system self‑care has looked like for me in the thick of it — not as a luxury, but as a necessity. Listen in and walk away with: A crystal clear understanding for how and why your nervous system responds. Real examples of what nervous system self‑care can look like in practice — the choices that help you feel regulated, instead of staying 'on edge' or overdrive. 3 simple nervous system regulation tools you can use anytime — breathwork, self-holding, and grounding — to calm your system and create emotional safety. Nervous system care matters more than ever because it gives your body rest and supports emotional safety. This is not self‑care fluff. It's medicine for your nervous system and human experience.

Indivisible's Ezra Levin and Hungarian organizer László Upor share creative, community-driven tactics — from joyful protests to bold campus actions — that pushed back against autocratic agendas. Their message: you have more power than you think.Make a tax deductible YEAR END DONATION and become a member go to LauraFlanders.org/donate. This show is made possible by you! Description: If you care about resisting autocracy and building democracy, the U.S. has much to learn from Hungary. While Donald Trump rails against Europe, he and Hungary's strongman leader, Viktor Orbán, have praised each other for years. Anti-democratic, anti-immigrant, anti-woman, anti-queer — Orbán and Trump came to power on parallel tracks with similar values. In their first interview together, Ezra Levin, the co-founder of Indivisible (the group behind No Kings!) and László Upor, a leader in one of Hungary's most creative and visible resistance efforts, share their experiences of resisting authoritarianism. Upor is former Vice Rector and Acting Rector of the University of Theatre and Film Arts in Budapest — the one university that fought back when the Orbán administration began taking control of Hungary's universities. Levin is the co-founder and co-executive director of Indivisible, the grassroots movement behind such protests as the historic Hands Off and No Kings rallies. From the principles of their organizing to frog suits and caution tape, today's episode is a masterclass in creative resistance. Plus a commentary from Laura.“Our enemy in this isn't Trump, it's not the Republicans. It's not the broader regime. Our enemy is this sense of cynicism or fatalism or nihilism . . . I do think a core principle in our communication philosophy is convincing people, you have power, you just gotta use it. The best way to use it is in concert with a lot of other people in your community.” - Ezra Levin“You have to laugh at them, not be afraid of them . . . They don't understand mirth. They don't understand the derision. They think they are invincible. And when we don't give in, they don't understand what's going on.” - László UpperGuests:• Ezra Levin: Co-Founder & Co-Executive Director, Indivisible• László Upor: Former Vice Rector & Acting Rector, University of Theatre and Film Arts (SzFE), Budapest, HungaryListen to the full uncut conversation in this podcast feed.Watch the episode released on YouTube, PBS World Channel, and on over 300 public stations across the country (check your listings, or search here via zipcode).

He is Coordinator of the Center for Chinese-Mexican Studies of the School of Economics at UNAM and of the Academic Network of Latin America and the Caribbean on China. His most recent book is “Latin America, China & Great Power Competition.” The US appears to be abandoning the Bretton Woods structure and some UN programs. US leadership with President Donald Trump is no longer dependable. Withdrawal from international institutions is foolhardy and counterproductive. Many experts are touting China as the emerging world leader. China is using Soft Power, such as the Belt and Road Project, to accomplish foreign policy goals. Eliminating USAID by President Trump damaged the reputation, alliances, efficiency and effectiveness of the US in many areas of the world.

Part 2: Emotional Self‑Care & Processing In this episode, I get personal. I share real moments of grief, anger, overwhelm, and what I did instead of turning to food. This episode shows you: processing emotions isn't 'weakness', It's a powerful act of self care. What you walk away with: Permission to feel — grief, rage, fear, overwhelm — without shame or guilt. A reminder that our emotions are important. Suppressing them often only buries OUR POWER. A simple (but effective) emotional self-care process that starts with naming what you feel. A model for emotional self‑care that honors your experience, your body and your self care as sacred. This is not self‑care fluff. It's much needed support and medicine. Press play. Brenda PS.

Given the not-terribly-uplifting streak of episodes we've had lately, we thought it was time for a Know Your Enemy movie night, and were joined by the podcast's intrepid producer, Jesse Brenneman, for a conversation about Paul Thomas Anderson's 2025 film, One Battle After Another. Its tagline—"When their evil enemy resurfaces after 16 years, a group of ex-revolutionaries reunite to rescue the daughter of one of their own"—suggests why all three of us absolutely loved it. We discuss: the film's relationship to the contemporary United States, and what it might reveal about our political situation; how it portrays both the left and the right; the family drama at the heart of the film, and the connection between origin and identity, personally and politically; the way Ronald Reagan haunts a surprising number of its scenes; and more! Spoiler alert: we offer a quick plot summary for those who haven't (yet!) seen One Battle After Another, but that does mean certain surprises will be spoiled for you.Sources:Sam Adler-Bell, "The Fantasy of Assassination Culture," New York Magazine, Nov 1, 2025Armond White, "There Will Be Bloodlust in One Battle After Another," National Review, Sept 26, 2025Richard Brody, "The Real Battle of 'One Battle After Another,'" New Yorker, Oct 7, 2025...and don't forget to subscribe to Know Your Enemy on Patreon for access to all of our bonus episodes!

According to Matrix co-creator Lilly Wachowski, the right co-opts pop culture because "this is what fascism does." "They appropriate left-wing points of view and they mutate them for their own propaganda, to obfuscate what the real message is. This is what fascism does. And so, of course that's going to happen.”Never mind that many franchises have been appropriated by the far left in recent years, but... WHATEVER. Obviously they're not real happy about the "red pill" meme, but also admits that hey, you can't control what people take away from a piece of media.Watch this podcast episode on YouTube and all major podcast hosts including Spotify.CLOWNFISH TV is an independent, opinionated news and commentary podcast that covers Entertainment and Tech from a consumer's point of view.

Part 1: Be Kind to Yourself When the world keeps showing us injustice, violence and oppression — caring for yourself (your body, your emotions, your nervous system) becomes necessary. In the first episode of this powerful series, I share: HOW I've been deepening my self‑care over the past year — not because I necessarily wanted to, but because life has required it. I walk you through my real personal examples of what it's looked like to deepen my self-care, instead of sabotaging. HOW: after decades of coping with emotional eating, stress eating and self‑sabotage — I am now able to chose something different. Practices that actually support me. WHY being kind to yourself (self‑kindness) matters so much right now: because our nervous systems are already on high alert. Harsh self‑criticism only activates more stress, while compassion and kindness stabilize, soothe, and create emotional safety. Listen In and Walk Away With: A deeper understanding for exactly how deeper self‑care isn't a luxury, it's essential — especially when there's a lot you're processing, navigating and holding. Permission to BE KIND to yourself — and to stop treating yourself like a machine, especially when life is demanding so much. A model for compassionate coping that doesn't rely on food, numbing, or self‑sabotage — but on intentional practices and deeper care. Emotional safety: knowing that you're not alone, that fear and grief are valid — and you deserve care, kindness, and real support as you navigate this time. This isn't self-care fluff. It's much needed medicine. Press play. Give yourself the care and support you deserve. xo Brenda

Fascism is one of the most notorious political ideologies that shaped the 20th century. Fascism is typically only thought of in tandem with Nazi Germany, but it wasn't the only country that adhered to the ideology, and they weren't even the first. The originator was Italy. Despite many similarities between fascist Italy and Germany, the two nations developed forms of fascism with significant ideological differences.
