YouTube Description
as posted by the channelNew Discourses Bullets, Ep. 43
Mao Zedong wanted to thoughtreform, that is, brainwash, the whole Chinese population, and he had a formula () for doing it"Unity Criticism Unity." That is, he sought to induce in people a "desire for unity" so they would join his socialistic cult, and then once that desire was strong enough, criticism and struggle sessions () would begin to cement adherence. Finally, through criticism, struggle, and study, unity with the socialist cult would be achieved. This model of cult programming might sound remote, but it isn't. It's the backbone of what we all experience in the American Cultural Revolution () in DEI, ESG, SDG, and unconscious bias training at work and SEL at school. We're told we want to make "safe" places where "everyone feels like they belong," which initiates the "desire for unity" under the banner of "Belonging." Then there are criticisms and struggles until there's solidarity with the Woke worldview, causes, and people pushing it. Join host James Lindsay for this episode of New Discourses Bullets where he makes it clear.
