insights INSIGHT Unhoused Reframes Responsibility
- The term "unhoused" reframes homelessness as something done to people rather than a 상태 they occupy.
- That linguistic shift assigns systemic blame and justifies seizing control of housing systems.
insights INSIGHT Woke Terms Hide Agendas
- Woke terminology deliberately confuses and mystifies to hide agendas inside language.
- James Lindsay's maxim: every woke term conceals an agenda that must be decoded.
insights INSIGHT Nouns-To-Verbs Power Strategy

Every Woke term conceals an agenda. That's a crucially important fact to understand. Yes, you may be familiar with the actual words in use, words like "diversity" or "resilience," but the Woke are misusing them and tucking an agenda in them, every time. You have to ask. Every time. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay covers this simple fact and gives you some strategies for what to do about it. Join him so you can counter this form of Woke word magic.
