First, two links to pieces on a recent ‘controversy’ involving certain neo-cons and paleo-cons, with an associate editor of the Spectator versus an associate editor of Chronicles:
So, these neocons, like other neocons such as Ben Shapiro, have remarketed themselves now, in the Trump and post-Trump era, as the Intellectual Dark Web:
Let’s look at the list Bari Weiss identifies as IDW people, including herself:
Ayaan Hirsi Ali Sam Harris Heather Heying Claire Lehmann Douglas Murray Maajid Nawaz Jordan Peterson Steven Pinker Joe Rogan Dave Rubin Ben Shapiro Michael Shermer Debra W. Soh Christina Hoff Sommers Bret Weinstein Eric Weinstein Bari Weiss
So, what do all of these people have in common?
None are Christians, for one… None are ethnic WASPs, either (Sam Harris, the prominent atheist, is of WASP, Quaker background on father’s side, but Tribal on mother’s.).
What do most have in common?
Well, other than Ali, Nawaz, Rogan, and Soh (Rogan being the only Irish among those Diversis), everyone is either Tribal / Tribal-sounding name (not sure about Lehmann’s husband or Sommers), Alphabeti (thought I understood Lehmann is bi; Murray, Rubin, and Weiss are definitely all Alphabeti), or both (Rubin, Weiss).
So, basically, they are the same kind of people as those who dominate neoconservatism (note who predominate in this list, esp. among government officials, academics, public figures):
The girl lied. She later admitted to Virginia police she wasn’t called racial slurs and that her head covering came off during the mutual brawl with a school boy. The incident involved Asian and Egyptian-American schoolmates. https://t.co/27ecLqoopr
So revealing: "Germany is a country of immigrants." This is a transparent lie, but Europe as an American protectorate must adopt American memes, even to the point of absurdity. https://t.co/1VWNugPB0n
