Favorite paragraph of the part I could read without subscribing:
“There may be no real-world comparison between a blood-soaked monster like Ceaușescu and a bumbling ball-scratcher like Joe Biden, or an honorarium-gobbling technocrat like Hillary Clinton, or a Handsome Dan investment banker like Emmanuel Macron, or an effete pseudo-intellectual like Justin Trudeau. Still, the ongoing inability of these leaders to see the math of populist uprisings absolutely recalls that infamous scene in Bucharest. From Brexit to the election of Donald Trump to, now, the descent of thousands of Canadian truckers upon the capital city of Ottawa to confront Trudeau, a consistent theme has been the refusal to admit — not even to us, but to themselves — the numerical truth of what they’re dealing with.”
This makes me feel like the meme of the young child at some sporting event with a red face and balled up fists screaming, “YEAHHHHHH!!!!”
I liked it, too.
Effete men turn to the left because there they find fashionable and self-righteous justifications for their lack of manhood.
