New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 180

Did you know the explanation for the Communist side of the Red-Green Alliance, including "Queers for Palestine," can be found on the last page of the Communist Manifesto (pdf), written in 1848 by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels? The explanation is simple and brief, "In short, the Communists everywhere support every revolutionary movement against the existing social and political order of things." Communists of all kinds are instructed to side with anyone fighting their common enemy, which is the status quo, or the present society. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay explains the relevance of this sentence, and the one that follows, to our contemporary issues, including intersectionality, the Red-Green Alliance, and Palestinianism (or the "Palestinian Cause"). Join him for an eye-opening look at the Communist version of the friend-enemy distinction.
