I’m not sure who Conrad Black is, but his artisle is a jargon-dense screed designed to prevent an average reader from understanding his point. It appears he is criticizing McCarthy for McCarthy’s writings, but the prose is so stilted it cannot be clearly deciphered.

What is the opposite of “damning with faint praise”?

You might not have intended it..... but if you knew who Conrad Black was, you’d realize just how funny your comment was. By the way, amongst other things Black is a longtime friend of PDJT.

Black is a modern day great. He knows of what he speaks.

Praising with faint damnation.

Think George Floyd media coverage.

Black is Canadian, owns some magazine, and a brilliant guy! I disagree with him, but do you prefer spending your time talking with a real person about real subjects or some mentally unstable hipsters who are 50 and still don’t know what they want to do when they grow up? Flip a coin!

You should take a minute and search the history of Conrad Black. He’s a very interesting person. The late Rush Limbaugh was close friends with Lord Black. Mr. Black is someone the left truly hates.
