New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 67
Given recent events in the Middle East, in which Woke Marxists throughout the world have indicated their total alignment with Palestine against Israel even in light of atrocities, the idea of "decolonization" is back in the center stage. Academics and activists across the West are not only celebratory of the violence in Israel; they are also mocking the general public for failing to realize that "decolonization" is intrinsically a violent, brutal process. What's going on here? Where do these ideas come from? The answer is that these ideas come from a postcolonialist named Frantz Fanon, who wrote his radical and troubling books in the 1950s and 1960s. These have become the academic gold standard for generations of radicals ever since. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay reads through French Marxist Jean-Paul Sartre's famous summary of Fanon's Wretched of the Earth and shows that decolonization is little more than a Gnostic rebirth ritual perpetrated through murder. Join him to understand this reaction as well as the so-called "strange death of Europe" and what we have in store as the postcolonial aspect of Woke Marxism fully awakens.
