I'm familiar with many of the people mentioned here and one thing that almost all of them will tell you is that they didn't move to the right. They were excommunicated from the Left for not buying 100% into the Left's ever-changing and expanding woke requirements to be a member of their club. The Right merely welcomed them.
I always thought Naomi Wolf was an intelligent woman.
Wherever the money is.
This is exactly it. If you question, vary, think differently, than your Liberal/Leftist masters, you are labeled a Nazi....i.e. Conservative.
And in doing so, these "masters" reveal how small minded they are and the exact nature of their mental defect.
this guy thinks they actually constructed a gallows, instead of a symbolic display...
what a maroon... i hope he enjoys his idiocy.
These 2 authors are Commie blowhards.
Slights and slams at every turn.
Notice how the writer tags each Person with a little tweak, or other soiled qualification before going on to highlight the committed crime? Classic leftist framing.
So sad, their phoney bile isn’t even original.
It’s like a middle-school Bad Girls letter.
Almost in tears from laughter!
They are so good at exposing their own dain-bramage.
We’ll keep some of them around, for entertainment.
The rest? Off to the whooorehouse to earn a more honest and respectable living.
An interesting display of contempt for those who disagree with the dogma. Not even an *attempt* at self-refloction!
I always thought Alex Jones was nuts and Bohemian Grove was fake but now it all makes sense. The country has been hijacked by Satanists. And they control both parties.
Forget about the horseshoe theory and think of it as a slide rule. As society has slid leftwards, what was once “right” is now in the middle. So those who did not slide as far left are considered “right” by those who did.
There is also an anti-authoritarian (anti-hypocritical) left, a subset of leftists several of whom were named in the article. Their politics didn’t change much. The principles of their former compatriots did.
Years ago in an essay I posted at FR, I pointed out that sometimes Left and Right wrap around each other and cause a new alignment in politics. It appears to be on the horizon.
It's not Edmund Burke, but it makes for a fascinating article.
I’m not reading all that but congratulations - or condolences.
I didn’t read the entire article...Lefties are always and forever lefties. I Donn’t trust any of them even if the switch to the right. What better way to take over?
Plants. Fakes.
If they are sincere, they need to stay where they are and work to bring the Democratic Party to some sense of sanity.

Read it slowly and let your lips move.
But it does lead us into what is conservatism:

Read the above slowly and out loud for what should unite us.
Death to communism.
“ He’s a Marxist; he sees culture as secondary to material conditions.”
You can see how crazy these people are to even think like this.

This “thing” (I would hardly call it a “piece” because it such a transparent confused rant) brings out a significant point.
The author believes (I mean really believes, like Christians believe in Christ’s divinity) in some unifying right-wing Evil. All sorts of ideas from across multitudes of ideologies don’t really count. What matters is the big Evil.
Trump, who doesn’t seem to me to be ideological at all, somehow has found and joyfully represents the Evil of the Holocaust, Slavery, the exploited proletariat, child abuse, sexual violence and every other historical badness that a weak education left in the author’s mind.
I think the author is a true believer in “The Great Satan” and should recognize fellowship with Islamic leadership in Iran. After all, If Cat Stevens could find and recognize a new home, then all leftists may want to head that way.
I propose that all the leftists that used to promise to move to Canada if elections didn’t go their way should now unite and move to Iran.
There’s the concept of “luxury beliefs”, beliefs which confer status, have no real cost if you are wealthy, but have a cost if you’re poor.

Leftists are slowly discovering that their status-generating beliefs WILL impose a real cost on them, and they don’t like it.
