Mid-Level Violence

Published: March 16, 2023, 2:51 p.m.

b'New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 41 \\n\\nA key tactic in the Woke Marxist activism toolbox is an unconventional warfare technique known as "mid-level violence," or, in other words, strategic provocation. In this strategy, agitators will engage in behavior that, if accepted, moves one of their mass-line agendas along or that, if resisted, provokes a reaction that can be framed as an unjust overreaction ("wound collecting" or "crybullying"). They are masters at this. In fact, it\'s Antifa\'s bread-and-butter tactic, and its goal is always to put its target into a dilemma of giving in and demoralizing (https://newdiscourses.com/2023/02/demoralization) themselves or reacting and thus being portrayed as having overreacted (https://newdiscourses.com/2023/02/action-reaction-and-beautiful-trouble). Join host James Lindsay in this episode of New Discourses Bullets as he explains how this malicious tactic works.\\n\\nOrder James Lindsay\'s new book, The Marxification of Education: https://amzn.to/3RYZ0tY\\n\\nSupport New Discourses: https://newdiscourses.com/support\\n\\nFollow New Discourses on other platforms: https://newdiscourses.com/subscribe\\n\\nFollow James Lindsay: https://linktr.ee/conceptualjames\\n\\n\\xa9 2023 New Discourses.
