🇺🇸 Midterms wipeout 🇭🇺 Orban losing 🇧🇷 Bolsonaro losing to an 81 year old socialist 🇬🇧 Labour now leading Reform 10 points in polling 🇳🇱 Geert Wilders losing a third of his vote share Everywhere the slopulist right is taking a drubbing. These people have nothing to offer young people, no vision, no economic promises beyond protecting boomer pensions and property prices. The only pitch to anyone else has been fear of the left and mass-immigration and it's failed to hold back either. One of the only exceptions to this trend is the AfD, who responded to the Iran War and Greenland nonsense by reasserting German sovereignty, while Farage was begging his government to let America use British bases for the Purim war. The right can't win with these people in charge. It needs to do what the left did in the 1960s and be taken over by young radicals who totally rebuild intellectually. Will we find the human capital to do that? For years the right has selected for vapid, fame hungry influencers and mindless shills, and the average right winger's brain has been so fried by conspiratorialism they can hardly think. It will be tough, but regardless of what comes next, the vision of the establishment right has already lost.

Great lecture by @keith_woods on ‘the Endurance of Nationalism’ for my student fraternity @KVHVGent. What struck me was that, even though nationalism has been the natural state of politics for millennia, it is barely discussed in university courses on political philosophy or political history—and when it is, it’s often through lies that can easily be dismantled in a single lecture, as Keith Woods intelligently demonstrated.

🇮🇪 The Irish state has published an advert discouraging grandparents from hugging their grandchildren, as part of a campaign designed to promote "consent". 📝 Keith Woods: "In my book The Gnostic Question, I argued that liberalism's ultimate tendency is emancipation from the given: freeing the sovereign individual from all unchosen bonds, identities and obligations. In a pluralist society with no shared conception of the good, freedom becomes something entirely negative – freedom from all constraints – and autonomy and consent become all-consuming moral principles. This logic must eventually extend to all that is unchosen, even the most intimate and natural human relationships like the bond between grandparents and their grandchildren." https://www.keithwoods.com/p/gnosticquestion 📎 Europa

My review of JD Vance's spiritual memoir Communion, a book that is ultimately more interesting in the questions it raises about its author than the answers it offers about his Christianity. https://www.keithwoods.com/p/communion
