Judith Butler and queer Marxists don’t just critique gender—they want to abolish it entirely. In this deep dive, I break down Butler’s real argument and explain why queer Marxists are fundamentally opposed to identity itself. Most conservatives mistakenly believe that all leftists are obsessed with identity politics. The truth? Queer Marxists actually reject identity because they see it as a tool...

In this clip, I take you inside a shocking session from the Socialism 2024 Conference, where radical pro-abortion activists openly teach attendees how to use abortion pills to sidestep state bans. They don’t hold back. The details are explicit. This isn’t the first time I’ve gone undercover in these circles—previously, I infiltrated a "self-managed abortion" tour at a socialist reproductive justic...

This is the manifesto that I’m reading in this podcast. Follow @BettrDiscourses on X here. Listen, obviously I started this @BettrDiscourses thing to mock James Lindsay by providing something BETTER than New Discourses. But real talk: There is a larger vision at play. I'm providing a creative, culture-building approach to defeating the left by using satire and humor to undermine them and educate p...

In this clip, we dissect a provocative idea from queer activism: the redefinition of "straight." Far from being synonymous with heterosexuality, queer activists argue that straightness represents a rigid framework of societal norms. "Straightness is a multifaceted set of social rules that police our bodies, our minds, our desires, and the ways we interact with others." Join me LIVE for streams on...

In this episode, we peel back the layers of punk rock history to uncover its critical role in shaping modern queer Marxist activism. From its anti-establishment ethos to its embrace of collective rebellion, punk music did more than create a soundtrack for revolution—it became the breeding ground for an entire movement. We'll connect the dots between the mosh pit and the political protest, revealin...

“Queer as in F*** You” is a music video from a far-left punk band that dives into the ideological underpinnings of the queer anarcho-communist movement that has become a rallying cry in far-left circles. Far from being a mere artistic expression, this video functions as a strategic manifesto, embedding radical ideology within its lyrics.

Is Elon Musk turning into what he claims to oppose? In this episode, we dive into the growing controversy around Musk's crackdown on voices he disagrees with on X (formerly Twitter). From bans to shadowbans, Musk’s actions are raising eyebrows—and not in a good way. Is this self-proclaimed free speech absolutist borrowing tactics straight from the woke playbook? I'll break down the hypocrisy, expl...

What a year it’s been. Absolute chaos, a little clarity, and plenty of cannon fodder for the culture wars. In this episode, I pull no punches, diving into five years of navigating the so-called “anti-woke” space. What’s shifted? Where are we now? And more importantly, where the hell are we headed in 2025? Spoiler: I’ve got plans—and they don’t include playing nice with the collectivist crowd. Stic...

This might not be the message people want to hear, but the truth is undeniable: the political right had ample opportunities to stop the rise of queer activism before it became the force it is today. In this eye-opening clip, Karlyn Borysenko lays out undeniable proof that the signs were there all along—but they were ignored. Watch and learn, because ignoring reality won't make it go away.

What to Expect from the Far Left During Trump’s Second Term As Trump’s second administration looms, the far left is already gearing up—and their playbook is clear. In this episode, I break down three key strategies you’ll see from far-left activists: * Radicalizing the disillusioned: Turning upset Democrats, Progressives, and Liberals into activists. * Shifting the narrative: Rebranding their mess...

James Lindsay and his classical liberal gatekeeping friends are celebrating that they tricked uneducated conservatives to publish sections of the Communist Manifesto. He believes this is proof of a “woke right” that needs to be gatekeeper out of his “anti-woke” movement. I offer my thoughts in this podcast. Follow @BettrDiscourses on X / Twitter . My work is completely grassroots funded by people...

There’s a reality we need to face when it comes to the left: classical liberalism is not going to solve this problem. We need to confront this because there’s a group of people (including James Lindsay, IYKYK) pushing to turn the conservative right into a classical liberal movement. If that happens, the left will win. In this clip, I break down why classical liberalism will always fail to defeat t...

We recently did a two-part watch party to listen to the Revolutionary Communists of America discuss recruiting high school (and even middle school) students to join their organization. The RCA is one of the better-organized far-leftist groups in America, with an organized chapter in over 30 US cities. I will be releasing many additional clips from this deep dive in the coming days. Make sure you s...

This episode was recorded as a live space on X, where I discussed the psychology of why the conservative right is completely ineffective in fighting back against the far left and offered ideas for what we must do to circumvent them. If we leave it to them, the left will win and we will all suffer. Stop waiting for them to step up. If they were going to do it, it would have already happened. Follow...
