Pt 1. The WOKE Right & Mass Formation - How This Subversive Ideology Has Infected MAGA & Conservative Media - With James Lindsay

Is it a cult?

Can it infect the right just as easily as the left?

What would drive a marginally successful, right wing media personality to actually write this: ‘I've never been more excited to have "lost" $10k in the stock market this week.

Best money I ever spent! MAGA MOTHERFU****!!!!”

~Brendan Tilley, MAGA Influencer

Or this:

What is up with the fatalistic, doomsday death wishes coming from highly platformed influencers on the right recently? It’s all feeling a little Jim Jonesy to me and today we will try to figure out what is going on here.

James Lindsay joins me today for a much needed conversation about cult formation and the subversive ideology of WOKE, which seems to be at the core of the lunatic left and the lunatic right influence sphere. It drives the wedge and inflames the passions while paving the way for totalitarian policies from Democrats and Republicans in Washington, DC.

James Lindsay is a historian and intellectual who has been ruffling feathers on BOTH sides of the political aisle for many years. He is a controversial thinker once embraced and beloved by the right only to be discarded quickly when he turned his theories on the Cult of MAGA.

Yup - we are going there today on the SJ Show.
