The Evil Twins of Technocracy and Transhumanism | Patrick Wood
Mere Simulacrity, Session 10
In this lecture from the Sovereign Nations “Mere Simulacrity” conference that was held in Phoenix, AZ, Patrick Wood elucidates the struggle for not just preserving human autonomy and human liberty but also for preserving humanity itself.
It is the technocrat’s vision of creating “new life” or of engineering life in a purposed, strategic, and goal-oriented direction that leads inevitably to both creating “god” and creating a new, integrated, infused version of humanity 2.0 (and beyond).
Wood traces the decades-long movement of transhumanism from international think tanks to eventual international collaboration as the pursuit to alchemically deliver the operational success of a transformed, obedient, interfaced humanity became an acceptable goal of the technocratic elite.
The elites that guide our politics, our finances and our faith have determined that this is an inevitable pathway for mankind. In this lecture, Patrick Wood disagrees and proposes that the only way forward is by taking the moral high ground and encouraging men and women everywhere to gain knowledge, become informed and resist the movement to transform humanity.

The Sovereign Nations 2024 Forecast | Public Occurrences, Ep. 117
In my Sovereign Nations 2024 Forecast, I reflect on the accuracy of my past predictions and issue warnings about imminent challenges. Over the years, I've highlighted the emergence of Critical Race Theory, divisive tactics, and the manipulation of societal structures by global entities such as the World Economic Forum. Looking ahead to 2024, I predict potential compromises in our digital infrastructure, ongoing law enforcement challenges, and intensified efforts to reshape Christianity. My forecast anticipates a push for Balkanization, economic transformation towards scarcity, and the rise of artificial intelligence. Additionally, I emphasize political developments, potential conflicts with China, and the promotion of a digital meta world. I stress the importance of defending the U.S. Constitution and urge vigilance to proactively address these forecasts.

The Church of Wall Street | Andrew Woodard
Mere Simulacrity, Session 3
For decades, the evangelical church has seen an infusion of business philosophies and practices
into the church. Now, in coordinated effort with the World Economic Forum Agenda 2030,
business leaders are seeking to integrate distinctly religious terms and ideas into their practices.
Though not referring to it by name, the post-millennial eschatological framework provides the
foundation for their globalist, utopian vision. Cathie Wood, CEO of Ark Investments, is our case
study and exhibit A, in this talk by Andy Woodard. Cathie has elsewhere stated that the kingdom
of God is coming in 2030, and it will come through disruptive innovation. One specific example
is that of DNA sequencing and mapping the human genome. The aim is to eradicate disease
through developing the ability to edit human DNA.
While dramatically expanded artificial intelligence, self-driving vehicles, DNA editing, and
robotics that combine all of these might sound like the kingdom of God to the idealist they sound
more like a dystopian, Left Behind, horror movie to the realist. When these “disruptive
innovations” are cloaked in the garb of Jesus, you have the subject which is exposed in this talk
by Andy Woodard, given at the Sovereign Nations, Mere Simulacrity Conference held in
Phoenix in December 2022.

The Trojan Variant | Public Occurrences, Ep. 54
The story of the Trojan Horse has transcended the ages as an example of how an impressive seemingly strong object or plan would be attractive for a nation that later is shown to be filled with horrible and tragic consequences.
So too is the way that the Omicron variant is being used by governments and corporations around the world to shut down borders, declare emergencies and demand vaccine compliance.
But if you haven’t thought about it already, the contradiction of the orders is clear:
-The Omicron variant is reportedly mild in its symptoms
-The “powers that be” in public health and in governance are stating that the current round of vaccines might not be effective in protecting the vaccinated from the new variant
-At the same time the “powers that be” are mandating compliance with vaccinations
-So officials in public health and governance are mandating vaccinations that have shown to be ineffective in stopping the spread of the new variant and ineffective as therapy against Omicron
-At the same time, they are beginning to insist that toddlers be vaccinated as well
So what is actually going on here?
What is going on is that this has nothing to do with Covid, variants or protecting you from viruses.
It is all about forcing all of us into a new, complex, digital system.

The Bishops of YouTube | Public Occurrences, Ep. 55
If you were listening to Sovereign Nations last week on YouTube, you might have noticed that things came to a rather abrupt stop if you were listening to us on that particular platform.
Our episode in the middle of last week titled "The Trojan Variant" was removed from YouTube and our account was put on a one week suspension.
Our crime? Saying the same things that we had said two years ago regarding the spread of Covid and how testing does not create ground zero location.
Exploding narrative myths is fatal to the subjective momentum created at progressive social media platforms like YouTube. And if you dare step on their narrative momentum, their algorithms will react both swiftly and harshly.

The Trap of the Thucydides Trap | The Causes of Things Ep. 24
In the world of international politics, much has been made of the concept called the Thucydides Trap. Thucydides's Trap postulates that catastrophic war is a forgone conclusion when there is a new power rising that threatens the domination of an established power. Sadly, this reflexive concept has been idea-laundered throughout international think tanks for years, resulting in policies that demand the disintegration and weakening of the United States and the capitulation to the Communist Chinese Party. Today we will examine the trap of looking at the Thucydides Trap as an inevitable event as opposed to a situation that can be easily avoided through diplomacy and open discussion.

The Negation of the Real | James Lindsay
Mere Simulacrity, Session 1
If you want to impose a totalitarian system, you have a problem on your hands: reality. The real is in your way and will eventually veto your project. Far sooner, people who can perceive reality will step in and prevent you from taking society over a cliff. Therefore, the only way to install a totalitarian system is to negate the real in the minds of those over whom you would rule. This is accomplished by creating an interpretive frame that deliberately causes people to misunderstand reality, sometimes called a "second reality" or "pseudoreality," or even a "hyperreality," which loses all contact with reality through its images and constructions. The totalitarian system "works" and would only work in that false image of reality. In his first talk at the Mere Simulacrity conference in Phoenix, Arizona, in December 2022, Dr. James Lindsay presents the idea and mechanism of negating the real to replace it with a hyperreal simulation in which totalitarianism can be accomplished. This, he argues, enables the installation of the Esoteric cult religion needed to advance the tyranny. Join him to understand how the Secret Religions of the West have slowly brought us to the brink of this disaster.

Limited Hangout | Public Occurrences, Ep. 118
In today's complex and deceptive American landscape, information and knowledge hold immense influence over the choices we make as individuals and as a society. However, not all information that is presented to the public is reliable or comprehensive. One concept that unveils this phenomenon is known as a "limited hangout." This term, coined by former CIA officer Victor Marchetti, describes a strategy utilized by governments, intelligence agencies, or organizations to disseminate selective or manipulated information in order to divert attention away from more damaging revelations.
A limited hangout can manifest in various ways, with its primary goal being the manipulation of public perception while creating an artificial sense of transparency. The orchestrators of a limited hangout strategically disclose only a portion of sensitive or incriminating information concerning a particular event or issue. This diversionary tactic aims to divert attention from deeper truths and enable control over the narrative. Consequently, this technique effectively obscures reality and facilitates manipulation.
One classic example of a limited hangout can be seen in government investigations into controversial events such as political scandals or high-profile crimes. In some cases, authorities may selectively release certain documents or evidence while withholding others that could expose deeper levels of corruption or wrongdoings. By providing just enough information for plausible deniability while distorting the overall picture, those involved in limited hangouts can protect their interests and manipulate public opinion.
Examples of limited hangouts in modern times include the revelation of Jeffrey Epstein's client lists, the hypothesis about a lab leak causing COVID-19, and the infamous Twitter files that exposed interference by the FBI and other government agencies in relation to stories about Hunter Biden's laptop during the 2020 Presidential election.
Unfortunately, no one involved in these crimes or controversies has faced punishment or been convicted for their actions against minors, which is considered one of the most abhorrent crimes against humanity. Additionally, there has been no accountability for violating the first amendment rights of millions of Americans.
The intelligence agencies merely provide insufficient information to divert public attention and hope that these stories will eventually fade away. Meanwhile, those responsible for committing heinous crimes go unpunished and unaccountable.
In today's podcast, Michael O'Fallon explores the reasons behind the utilization of limited hangouts and its implications for a distressed U.S. population amidst the tumultuous year of 2024.

Reaction is the Real Action | Dr. James Lindsay
With Liberty & Justice For All, Session 14
Leftist activism often seeks direct victories but resorts to an action-reaction strategy when faced with obstacles. This political warfare tactic involves provoking a response, controlling how it's portrayed to the audience, and using it to further their agenda. Saul Alinsky's principle, "your enemy’s reaction is your real action," underpins this approach, involving a two-step process of provocation and advancement. In the United States, where conservative Christianity poses a significant challenge to Marxist influence, a movement known as "Christian Nationalism" is deliberately stirred to nullify Christian resistance against the spread of Woke ideology. Dr. James Lindsay's lecture delves into the action-reaction dynamic as a political tool and exposes the deliberate setup of Christian Nationalism as a response to Woke provocations, serving as a critical warning to the American church.

Why Sovereign Nations? | Public Occurrences, Ep. 111
If you were to think back to 2017, you might remember a United States that seemed very different than the nation that we live in today.
Economic stability was becoming a reality after 8 years of socialistic policies of the Obama Administration. The national mood of the United States was on the upswing with hope for a brighter tomorrow. People made plans, were confident in their investments and trusted their healthcare officials.
But all throughout 2017 and 2018 there was a boiling of issues that were just underneath the surface:
-Critical Race Theory was being taught in our schools, churches, and corporate class
-A strong anti-American sentiment was consistent in our media and entertainment
-Our global system was moving in a collective direction
-The World Economic Forum was pushing a neo-fascist strategy for the planet
-Soros and others were manipulating our judicial system
-Our financials systems were heading towards paradigm shifts towards ESG governance
-China was digitally colonizing Asia, Africa and portions of Europe and South America
On October 31st, 2017, Sovereign Nations began our mission to provide the answers to what would be coming to our nation and world in the years to come. From alerting the nation about the coming threat of CRT, to providing the first warnings about a “Great Reset” and “Big Sort”, Sovereign Nations has consistently led the way in providing warnings to the public about the shape of things to come and how to halt the progress of enviro-communo-fascism.
Sovereign Nations was started because no one else would discuss these issues.
Join Michael O’Fallon in an overview of “why” he founded Sovereign Nations.

Panel: Steal Their Motte & Bomb Their Bailey | James Lindsay & Michael O'Fallon
The Theology of Marxism, Session 2
Many of the Christian leaders of seminaries, denominations and para-church ministries, who in the past propagated CRT and intersectionality, are still holding seats of power and influence: denying their own past actions to poison the minds of those under their influence. How are these men and women still in positions of influence? How can they pivot on their past words and actions without acknowledging their past errors?
James Lindsay and Michael O’Fallon discussed these issues during their first of four panels at the Sovereign Nations Conference in Phoenix, AZ. Their suggestion? Rhetorically bomb their bailey and steal their bailey and leave the dishonest merchants of poisonous ideology without a safe haven.

Beware the Ides of March | Public Occurrences, Ep. 81
The great English poet and writer, William Shakespeare, dramatized the assassination of Julius Caesar in his dramatic tragedy, “Julius Caesar.”
Early in the play, a soothsayer warns Caesar to “Beware the ides of March” as Caesar was leaving to participate in festivities of the day.
As Emperor of Rome and spiritual head of the Empire, Julius Caesar would have naturally been expected to participate in the public festivities during this important day, despite the seer’s prophecy to, “Beware the Ides of March.”
When Caesar arrived at the Theater of Pompey, where the Roman Senate met, he was stabbed to death by a group of more than 60 conspirators led by the senators - his friends - Brutus and Cassius, former friends turned enemies in their own thirst for power.
Shakespeare has the dying dictator say, in Latin, as he recognizes his one-time friend Brutus among the assassins: Et tu, Brute? (“You, too, Brutus?”)
That the conspirators - Caesar’s closest political allies - chose the Ides of March to enact their plot was no coincidence.
And it shouldn’t be any surprise that many of the psychopathic conspiracies to make major regime changes have happened on or right around the Ides of March.
But the Ides of March has been used frequently as that “world changing Date.”
So, what other world changing - history changing moment happened on the Ides of March?
Think…
It was on the Ides of March, March 15, 1917 that Tsar Nicholas II of Russia abdicated the Russian throne and the age of Marxist Leninist Communism began: the first communist nation in the world, the Soviet Union.
So what happened during the Ides of March in 2020?

Hyper-Reality | The Great Gaslight, Ep. 3 | James Lindsay & Michael O'Fallon
We are in the process of transitioning from an analog, objective, real, physical world into a digital, subjective, surreal world.
In that transition into a digital subjective world, we are experiencing a transformation of what is accepted as reality, when it isn’t reality: it is synthetic.
In this discussion enters Jean Beaudriallard and his understanding of hyperreality the creation of synthetic reality, which is not reality at all: it is the creation of something that is more real than real.
It is beyond propaganda, but propaganda is certainly utilized.
It is the creation of simulacra and simulation.
And in this world of simulacra, we are being told to ignore objective reality and embrace hyperreality: an unreality that has no connection with that which it claims to represent.
Our way of life, our media, our news and our body politic are now guided by the ever-changing synthetic world of the hyperreal.
Hyperreal is defined by Dr. James Lindsay as “more real than real” or not bearing any true qualities to the original.
As we examine the world around us, we begin to suspiciously consider that the world in which we live in is undergoing a major cultural transformation—one leading to a widespread lack of stability, an increase in moral relativism, and a rejection of objective truth.

The Gnostic Parasite | Dr. James Lindsay
Mere Simulacrity, Session 5
In his first talk at the Mere Simulacrity conference in Phoenix, Arizona, in December 2022, Dr. James Lindsay introduced the idea that there is a long, running current of "Secret Religions" in the West. These are the Modern and Postmodern manifestations of the Esoteric Religions like Gnosticism and Hermeticism as they developed through what we might consider the Middle Age's "New Age" period, famously codified by G.W.F. Hegel. In the second lecture in his "Secret Religions of the West" series, Dr. Lindsay explains that these "philosophies," including Marxism, are actually mystical Esoteric cult religions posing as science, economics, and politics, and that their success in infiltrating our religions, societies, and institutions is down to their intrinsically parasitical nature. They mimic and illegitimately claim the language and structure of the things they pretend to be and bring destruction and madness into the void they create. Join him to understand not only this but how the "handshaking" balance between Reason and Faith is the only way to stop Gnosis.

True and False Religion | Jon Benzinger
Mere Simulacrity, Session 9
I started my presentation by showing that objective truth exists and it is a biblical concept, which demonstrates that all worldviews that deny the existence of objective truth are automatically false. Then, I presented Christianity as the true story of reality because it matches reality, is internally consistent, and is based on a reliable authority, namely, the resurrected Jesus of Nazareth who is the truth (John 14:6) and who's teachings are based on the Word of truth, the Bible (John 17:17). From there, I presented what the Bible says about false teaching and showed how in the New Testament false teaching is always an attempt to counterfeit the real thing. Then, I showed the 5-step process for how false teaching sought to embed itself in the early church with Gnosticism (e.g., Colossians and 1 John) and the Judaizers (e.g., Galatians). I concluded the message with a 5 point challenge for how Christians must respond to the false teaching that is seeking to infiltrate their lives today.

The Faith of the 4th Industrial Revolution | Michael O'Fallon
Mere Simulacrity, Session 11
We are in the midst of transitioning from an objectively true, historically consistent, analogue world and into a world that is subjectively purposed, revolutionary, and digital in construct. In fact, more so than ever before, we are in a period of time where the “what is” is being demonized and the wizard’s trick of “what it should be” is being lauded as a preferred pathway to the real.
A hyperreal world of dreams, visions, technology and digital realization is in many ways attempting to take the place of what mankind has always called “reality.”
In the late second century, the Christian Bishop, Irenaeus of Lyon, confronted the Gnostic parasitic cult of Valentinus which proposed that this physical world was a “prison” by which men and women needed to be liberated through Gnostic faith and practice. More specifically understood as “anticosmicism”, the Gnostics proclaimed the belief that the objectively knowable world is inherently evil and opposed to the divine. In the Gnostic formulation of their transformed Christianity, true divinity was not the essence of this real, natural world, but its negation and cancellation.
Irenaeus of Lyon warned Christians that this parasitic religion of Gnosticism was a religion masquerading as the Gospel but in reality was a simulacrum of true Christianity:
“Error, indeed is never set forth in its naked deformity, lest, being thus exposed, it should at once be detected. But it is craftily decked out in an attractive dress, so as, by its outward form, to make it appear to the inexperienced more true than truth itself.” -Irenaeus of Lyons, AD 180
The Gnostics did not seek harmony with the natural world or with the normative Christian understanding of cultivation and dominion. Instead, the Gnostics attempted to parasitically transform the established Christian faith that sought harmony with God’s creation and instead promoted the false concept of the mystical, otherworldly insight that our world must be seen as unnatural and even anti-natural. The natural, in the Gnostic sense, was only available to those that have embraced special knowledge or what can be described as a critical consciousness of the natural world.
The way that things are in a natural sense to the Gnostics was “imprisonment” and the mystical otherness of what was not naturally attainable was “liberation.”
If you were a woman in the natural and objectively knowable world, in the spiritually anti-natural world the woman's true self was actually that of a man who has been imprisoned by the Demiurgic forces of the natural world.
This denial of the objectively real and knowable experienced a renaissance in the 18th and 19th centuries through the works of Swedenborg, Kant, Hegel and eventually Karl Marx. As Dr. James Lindsay has explained at Sovereign Nation’s conferences in the past, Marxism is a Neo-Gnostic theology where Man is made to realize he is his own Creator, his own true Sun that revolves around itself. Marx sees himself as the light-bringer, Lucifer, the Morning Star, that awakens this Gnostic consciousness and rebels against God and order.
It has continued to this day with further gain of function through Horkheimer, Adorno, Marcuse and a host of other Neo-Marxists who have embraced unreality and rejected objective standards for truth, life, and human existence.
In this powerful presentation from the Sovereign Nation’s Mere Simulacrity Conference, Michael O’Fallon explains how the spectre of Gnosticism has been infused into our culture, our faith, and our world.

DQSH & KMSH | Public Occurrences, Ep. 114
Horrible events have been taking place over the last year or so that have been electronically pushed into our social media streams. It seems as if each event is worse than the previous one with grotesque images of grown men dancing in women’s underwear in front of small children. As I am sure you already know, it is called Drag Queen Story Hour (DQSH).
With every new video that comes through social media, normal conservative men and women are both horrified and compelled to try and do something about stopping the next DQSH in their area.
DQSH basically follows the same prescriptions as Marxist Herbert Marcuse had prescribed in his book, Eros and Civilization:
“The psychoanalytic liberation of memory explodes the rationality of the repressed individual. As cognition gives way to re-cognition, the forbidden images and impulses of childhood begin to tell the truth that reason denies.”
The relatively new movement called “Christian Nationalism” has sensed the collective anger in regard to DQSH and has attempted to place the ending of DQSH at the forefront of their efforts to attract new supporters for their political and ecclesial ambitions.
As repulsive as DQSH is for our society, is the Church missing something in what appears to be a myopic call to jump into Christian Nationalism as the cure-all for this provocative event?
The fact is, the Church has done very little to correct its own issues that are somewhat related to the same root problem: Marxism. In the Church, we have experienced the Marxification of Christianity, and yet, no one seems to be in a hurry to remove the spectre of Marxism from the Church.
So what is the right path for the Church to take?

Panel: Defeating the Marxian Panopticon | Michael O'Fallon, Charlie Kirk, James Lindsay
The Theology of Marxism, Session 7
In this third and final panel of Sovereign Nations's The Theology of Marxism Conference, Michael O’Fallon sits down live on stage with Dr. James Lindsay—renowned scholar, self-proclaimed agnostic, and a new convert from liberalism to conservatism (as confirmed exclusively in this episode), as well as Charlie Kirk, the Founder and President of Turning Point USA. They discuss the roots of Marxism, the Woke Rotting of Corporate America, ESG, Elon Musk & Tesla, how to crush your political enemies, the New Right, Klaus Schwab’s Great Reset, and how it all comes together to form an urgent warning sign for American conservatives to wake up, stand up, and fight back for the future of our republic.

The Arizona Election Audit Explained | Public Occurrences, Ep. 32
Maybe you heard the whispers over the past week that something happened with the Arizona Election Audit. The problem is, it is hard to understand what actually happened as all of the mainstream media and a good portion of the globalist semi-conservative-in-name-only provided confusing, contradictory and flat-out false information about the Arizona Election Audits.
In today’s Public Occurrences both Foreign and Domestic, Michael O’Fallon combs through the details, examines the objective results and separates the fertile fallacies that the mainstream media continues to report.
Long story short: the election results in Arizona need to be overturned.

Christian Nationalism: The Danger and the Draw | Dr. William Roach
With Liberty & Justice For All, Session 7
Christian Nationalism is a divisive movement within evangelical circles, with some seeing it as a stabilizing force in a turbulent society while others argue it blurs the separation between Church and State, resembling totalitarian regimes. Defining Christian Nationalism is challenging, as various factions offer local interpretations, leaving room for manipulation by progressive movements through linguistic tactics. Some Reformed Christian Nationalists criticize the Woke movement's subjectivity but inadvertently adopt their own form of subjective epistemology. Popular expressions of Christian Nationalism often mix elements of Scholastic Reformed Protestantism with Hegelian social and governmental ideas and draw influence from theonomists seeking to impose ancient Israel's laws, even advocating for new blasphemy laws. These positions ignore America's foundations of religious freedom and free speech. Some segments of the movement risk undermining the Reformation's core principles in pursuit of political expediency, forgetting that the Reformation emphasized grace, faith, Christ, Scripture, and the glory of God alone, not compromising these principles for political gain.

How to Actually Save the World | Andrew Woodard
There’s rioting in the streets, illegals pouring across our border, mutilation of our children, the murder of the unborn, corruption in our politics and elections, and globalist leaders enacting perverse agendas to create an apocalyptic utopia.
What are Christians to do in the face of such dire circumstances?
Today many people are turning to Christian nationalism for hope and an attempt at answers to the societal decay we see all around us.
Before we can examine the false hope of Christian Nationalism, we need to first consider the discrepancies over definitions. There are many different views, all claiming the title.
The second point to consider is the theology of the movement. Though it is diverse, one point in common across the movement’s branches is that Christian Nationalism is a theology of glory, rather than a theology of the cross.
“At its core, Christian Nationalism can justifiably be called a ‘theology of glory’ that seeks to build the Kingdom of God on the earth without necessarily requiring gospel preaching or conversion. Its central focus is morality, politics & power. None of which are actually overtly Christian.” -Andy Woodard
In this talk we consider a few biblical passages which offer both examples of a theology of glory and a theology of the cross and conclude with the following points of application.
1. Recognize that it’s not too late to repent. Hebrews 3:13
2. Acknowledge the sovereignty of God. Daniel 2:21
3. Put NO confidence in princes. Psalm 146:3
4. Do not despise the little things. 1 Samuel 14:6
5. Boldly, Clearly speak the truth. 2 Corinthians 4:2
6. Trust wholly in the Lord our God. Psalm 20:7
7. Confront evil in the camp when necessary. 1 Corinthians 5:12

Hermeneutics and Perspectivalism | Dr. William Roach
Mere Simulacrity, Session 2
Throughout the ages, theological and philosophical movements have been advanced based upon
half-truths, false rhetoric, and equivocations championed as axiomatic principles.
Theologians and philosophers, whether they are evangelical or non-evangelical, still use
similar rhetorical devices to champion claims that undercut the concept of a universally valid
approach to knowledge. They will say things such as: People have different perspectives, right?
Clearly your background and personal biases influence your reading of the Bible or any other
text, right? It would be overly prideful to claim that anyone particular person has the correct
interpretation of the text, so why don’t you take a humbler approach?
Fundamental to these questions is a half-truth; namely, the fact that people do approach
events, texts, or situations from different vantage points. However, underlying this approach is a
philosophical commitment to the belief we cannot have universally valid frameworks of
understanding. Many believe any commitment to a universally valid framework of understanding
ought to be considered arrogant, white, western, patriarchal, or racist. Essential to this line of
reasoning are one of many philosophical approaches to reality known as idealism, subjectivity,
relativism, perspectivalism, or any other “ism” that affirms all we have are interpretations, not
knowledge.
Dr. Bill Roach traces the rise of different idealistic revolutions up to the present day
embrace of the existential method by evangelical scholars and pastors. He addresses Plato’s
metaphysical idealistic, Kant’s epistemological idealistic revolution, Schleiermacher’s
hermeneutical idealistic revolution, and Post-Modernism’s linguistic idealistic revolution.
Special emphasis is placed upon leading figures in philosophical hermeneutics and the various
ways present-day scholars, whether secular or evangelical, have embraced one or more of the
various expressions of philosophical idealism. Dr. Roach concludes with a call to embrace
philosophical realism as a corrective to the varying idealistic revolutions throughout the history
of ideas.

The Dialectical Faith of Leftism | James Lindsay
The Theology of Marxism, Session 3
Marxism is a theology, and its religion is Communism. That we have failed to understand this fact over the 175 years since Marx wrote the early drafts of what he originally called the Communist Confession of Faith and published in by the title The Communist Manifesto is indisputably one of the most damaging analytical errors in human history, if not the single worst. It's time to set the record straight. Marx laid out an evil theology, and the practice of his religion is a liturgy of death and destruction.
To understand the Marxist theology, we have to understand its theological antecedent, which was laid down by the German systematic theologian, speculative idealist, and Hermetic alchemist Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel. His theology is a dialectical one, the father of what Marx turned into dialectical materialism, and it is the combination of two mystery religions. Hegel, building on Jean-Jacques Rousseau (Father of Leftism), Immanuel Kant, and others dialectically synthesized Hermetic alchemy and Gnosticism, hammered it into a Christianity-based metaphysical framework, and mislabeled it a "system of science." Thus we arrive at what has been variously called "Scientific Gnosticism," "Gnosticism in the Modern Era," and "Dialectical Leftism," which outlines a broad system of faith in man's necessary role as a transformer of reality into its utopian idealized state at the End of History.
In this deep-diving presentation from The Theology of Marxism Conference, New Discourses (https://newdiscourses.com/) Founder James Lindsay (https://linktr.ee/conceptualjames) explains for the first time in decades and in unprecedented clarity how Rousseau and Hegel architected the seeds of a broad Dialectical Faith of Leftism that Marx codified into his own anti-human theology.
