New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 57
In Mao Zedong's CCP-run China, citizens were bullied and brainwashed into accepting "socialist discipline" by the Communist authorities by means of a devastating tool called the "struggle session." Struggle sessions are nothing short of a form of psychological torture achieved through social means. They are unbelievably difficult to go through, and they can and will polarize and divide an organization while nullifying its best members. They must be understood and resisted at every turn if we are going to stop the American Cultural Revolution. In this long episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay explains the struggle session and what to do about it in unprecedented detail. Join him to learn all about it and how to beat them.
