Is Marxism Gnostic? Responding To Jordan Peterson | Miguel Conner

Aeon Byte Gnostic Radio's Miguel Conner returns to the show this week for an in-depth unpacking of claims made by Jordan Peterson, James Lindsay and others in the online Right that Marxism is actually Gnosticism.

We look at

  • The origins of these claims.
  • Exactly WHERE and HOW they are wrong.
  • The origins of Gnosticism.
  • The 'true' origins of 'woke' thought.

We also explore some possible points of consent with the analysis Jordan Peterson presents regarding Lucifer and the archetypal significance of clowns, jesters and evil.

Many thanks to Miguel for coming back on the show again. I have actually tried several different ways of doing this topic as a solo show since catching the discussion between Jordan Peterson and James Lindsay back in June of 2023. But imagine trying to have a discussion on the history of Gnosticism without Miguel?

Turns out that was the very obvious unlock I needed all along. Enjoy!
