James Lindsay - SHAME: The Inner School of the Cult

James Lindsay was first with us a few months ago after his great speech on Woke in the European Parliament.
He returns to Hearts of Oak to unpack a recent thread of his on X, titled 'How totalitarian cults control people through shame'.
We often find that presenting information and facts often fails to sway those trapped in totalitarian ideologies (like Woke, Covid or gender queer).
People do not like to admit they were wrong and certainly do not like others knowing they believed shameful things.
The battle we face regards social identity, not error. Belonging and not belief.
Before it is possible to get people out of such a cult mentality, they must realise they have permission to believe against cult doctrine.
Join us as James breaks all of this down in his own imitable and profound style.
