Is Western Civilisation in the grip of a new Cultural Revolution? In this explosive interview, James Lindsay reveals how the same Maoist playbook that fuelled 20th-century tyrannies is being run again, through identity politics, cancel culture, pandemic-era control measures, and media-driven psychological operations.
Lindsay explains how both the Left and the Right are now deploying authoritarian tactics: dividing populations into 'in-group' and 'out-group', weaponising victimhood politics, and creating cult-like environments where dissent is punished.
We explore:
- The roots of modern authoritarian movements in Marxism and Maoism
- How pandemic control measures acted as a gateway to broader political manipulation
- Why cancel culture and identity politics are tools of social engineering
