Episode Description from the Publisher

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 189 There's no understanding Woke without understanding its dialectical engine, which traces back through the Critical Theorists back through Lenin and Marx and even Hegel. Classically, there are three dialectical theories put forth and made explicit use of in Communist and Woke thinking. The first of these three is "Quantity transforms into quality, then quality transforms into quality." In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay walks through this dialectical form and connects it to the Woke you deal with today. This episode is the first in a three-part series dealing with the three operational dialectics. Join him to understand how they think.
