It is entirely possible that reading this letter is bad for you. It is entirely possible that we would be better off with less information. The difficulty, of course, is knowing which bits of information to avoid.
Finally, an explanationWhy the Times and so forth keep regurgitating the “campus liberals are fascists” argument: all the other pseudo-intellectual conservative talking points are lost in the tsunami of filth that is Trump’s ascendance. They need, or think they need, a “respectable conservative” voice. And all that’s available in the “respectable” field is people complaining about how a handful of students at a handful of elite colleges are rude to conservatives. So, they’ll keep running that column, again and again, even though it’s obviously wrong and irrelevant and dumb.
If they actually wanted to run a diversity of viewpoints, they’d bring in some actual diversity of viewpoints, like maybe some actual socialists. But no, they think Paul Krugman is as left as they can go, and David Brooks somehow represents mainstream moderates instead of a weird outlier in a party full of white nationalist zealots and gun fetishists.
Lexicon of conservative language
Ann Coulter makes clear what she means by (((Globalist))).
Economics of subservience
Tipping considered harmful: “A significant portion of my income is how men feel about me that day,” says a waitress interviewed on the custom of tipping.
A haunting photographic series of low-income America.
Meanwhile, in the province of wealth
Betsy DeVos did a predictably terrible interview in which she revealed that she doesn’t know how to do her job.
Betsy DeVos perfectly represents the modern American Dream, where all you need to make it is vast inherited wealth and no fucking clue what you’re doing.
