Absolutely. MLK was a nerd and a middle class guy who’d never known the full brunt of Jim Crow. But of course Buckley was himself a spoiled son of privilege who grew up with segregation parents and with black servants.

This is what proto Confederates said about abolitionists. Bill Buckley basically said MLK Jr was an oversensitive woke academic

The guy who goes for “coup attempt” in term one wasn’t going to calm down when he’s term limited. The crazy was over determined.

As Justice Marshal said it’s absurd for the legal system to pretend history didn’t happen. And he would know.

So we got “clash of civilizations” meets “sex is for the ladies” Pat, the clue is “read too much Nietzsche”

So much energy over the past decades was spent psychoanalyzing young progressives. Comparatively very little attention was paid to young conservatives despite the remarkable warning that was Charlottesville

Maybe an extreme version of solidarity. Vice signaling to indicate that they are completely opposed to any efforts at persuasion

I always thought it was interesting that we had a decade long freakout over the political proclivities of educators and no one bats an eye at the politics of the people with a bunch of guns and stuff.

Miller reflects a long running ideological conflict within the Republican Party. Trump’s dominance looks sudden but his immigration policy was prefigured by Pat Buchanan, Charles Murray, Jeff Sessions. I don’t think such a turn is as random as it appears at a distance.

Cynicism isn’t my cup of tea but I think the original conclusion is closer to the mark. Remember the Bell Curve. It’s genuine sympathy for anti egalitarian ideology.

A bit off the beaten track but discussions of white supremacy and the founding era always makes me want to understand the Naturalization Act of 1790

The groundwork was being laid for years chiefly by Ed Blum. But the way it is immediately spread beyond higher education after the election is really striking.

Birmingham is urban Appalachia. Definitely a city but the country is never far from the surface

Why is no one talking about the Naturalization Act of 1790?! (This quibble is my sole contribution to this debate)
April 29, 2025 at 9:20 PM
To say nothing of the intellectual class of the Republican Party like George Borjas and Greg Mankiw
