Tell me one thing, how's Chomsky an intellectual? His political dissidence is his unabashed opinion that has nothing to do with Linguistics (where he's actually a genius). How are Marx, Foucalt or any of these guys intellectuals? Intellectuals are people with a vision, a pertinent world view they can back with data... All these people studying liberal arts in ivy leagues types with their tired tropes about society and an opinion to spout catering to a specific audience; and who lend themselves to be used by politicians. THEY'RE ABSOLUTELY USELESS and a huge waste of money. Someone who's hands are on real data and storytelling; poll strategists, survey designers or some social intellectuals who at least present their arguments to test it with real world phenomena for merit. These are intellectuals! Left or Right, these liberal arts so called "intellectuals" are frauds that cost us dearly.

What they mean by "pro-family" is heterosexual marriages where the man is in charge, the woman is at home having babies (rather than cats, apparently) and is doing as she is told and can neither leave nor control how many children she has. It is not pro-family. It is pro-patriarchy at its worst.

The New Republic, online/free, has an article by Gil Duran entitled "Where J.D. Vance gets his weird, terrifying techno ideas". In this article the author reports on discussions between Vance, Theil, and a techbro named Curtis Yarvin that include discussions of a massive surveillance state operating to control individual citizens and monitor their private lives Duran also reveals their plans for corporate serfdom where CEO's are the only local government, free to enact whatever brutal means of control necessary: this includes chopping off limbs, incarceration in solitary with "tech" psychological torture. They also examine genocide in these conversations. PLEASE READ THIS. VANCE IS NOT TRUMP'S PICK; He is chosen by the Heritage Foundation as Trump's successor. He is every bit as creepy has he seems but VERY MUCH MORE and this is the intended future of Project 2025. The Supreme Court has given immunity for everything: including the list of horrors enacted by the Naziis, but in a far darker and ultimately broader spectrum of evil, barbarity, and debauchery.

I think very few Americans can really get their heads around what these people have in store for the country, or the incredible import of the Supreme Court granting provisional, aka preemptive, immunity for all of it. During the 20th century, much of Latin America was ruled by people with similarly brutal philosophies, and with support from the US foreign policy establishment. In many of these countries, death squads and gruesome forms of torture were the norm. This is what is at stake here now. These "New Right" people are grasping for rationalizations to gain acceptance to bring essentially these same methods to the US.

@@Lerian_V You'd have to read about or hear about some of the things that the right-wing dictators did in South America. It is impossible to exaggerate how vicious they were. On one hand is the "disappearances." Which is a polite way of saying they committed mass murder in a way that the bodies could not be recovered. They systematically kidnapped political activists who opposed them, and dropped them into the ocean from helicopters. These have been widely reported on and are well known to those who have taken an interest over the years. Also widely reported is the rampant torture of political opponents. What has been less widely reported is the gratuitous torture of people who were not deeply involved in politics. The cases I read about were described by Noam Chomsky. He described a case where a woman's teeth were all pulled out, and then they were stuffed back into her open mouth and her lips sewed shut. As I recall, plastic surgeons often took part in these atrocities.

There's a big problem in this discussion of Liberalism. The classical notion of Liberalism, since John Locke, is about individual freedom which includes things like property rights. This form is very closely in line with modern Conservatism. On the other hand, Liberalism in America, as it has been used for the last century, is roughly the same as progressive political ideas and is socially oriented. You see the confusions here! Vance's ideas are a hybrid that ignores these conceptual positions. In particular, emphasizing social solutions to family issues is basically socialism, while Capitalism is really predicated on Classical Liberalism (Locke's ideas) and the supremacy of the individual ( business rights). And since the values of Capitalism are the status quo they are the essence of Conservatism. So this is just confused thinking. OR: Of course, if family rights are not granted as social rights, these could be imposed on citizens as obligations in a modern Theocratic state ( Iran) or secular Fascist state (Hungary). I had excluded this far fetched at first, but you can't underestimate the audacity of these people.

Vance's Malthusianism isn't especially unusual, it's normal Conservatism. It's just that Malthus wasn't the final word on how to manage a society. They're calling themselves post Liberals, which just means they need a better name. Tentatively, post Neoliberal gets you closer. We've already had a historic post Liberal moment! It's when you update the terms that you start contextualizing Vance's views better. His Conservatism just tried to dismantle a government that is decidedly not Liberal, and utterly failed to do so! This is a new Conservatism that, after placing the burden for funding the government on work, and issuing as much debt as democracy can handle, has come to peace with a social safety net. It turns out that a big government with levers on social mobility, and severely constrained elections, works great for the elite in this society! So, what kind of system takes the democracy out of Socialism? Here, we're getting closer to a better name...

I was raised Roman Catholic, went to a Catholic middle school for several years, and was an altar boy for 4 years. A few months before my 17th birthday, I had an epiphany of sorts in one night of deep discussion with my best friend in which the entire edifice of my Catholic faith crumbled. In my mind I’ve revisited that discussion many times to check the soundness of my thinking and refine it. I could not put my Catholic beliefs and faith back together again. I’ve spent the remainder of my life searching for meaning and grappling with the mystery of existence and, although I’ve not adopted any comprehensive framework to hang my psycho-spiritual hat on, I’m still energized by the search which continues, in fits and starts, to this day at age 75. In rejecting Catholicism at 17, I didn’t do so angrily or with the certitude of the convert to a new creed. On the contrary, it was a bit like saying goodbye to a benign parental figure whose authority over my conceptions was revealed to be irreparably flawed. I nevertheless held certain ideas I’d been raised with in high regard, such as the Catholic emphasis on actually doing charitable works as opposed to giving the idea of charity lip service or fulfilling the obligation by throwing money at it. Sadly, I’ve lost respect entirely for the institution of the Church, as it has demonstrated in recent years, in various ways, its moral bankruptcy. Please beware of so-called Catholic “philosophers” like Deneen and adherents like Vance. Their project is to build a comprehensive framework of control over our lives, whether we like it or not.

sad, that you continue to decide NOT to cover & work for any real change in USA! You can do this TODAY, by Covering Jill Stein !!! (who is working to change USA - STOP THE GENOCIDE - STOP THE WAR-MONGERS - get much better contitions for your homeless people !!!) You now have got 100 days, to change this - and show us viewers & supporters - that we should keep on supporting you!

I am your sister from Yemen, and by Allah I only spoke out of hunger and distress. My mother, my brothers, and I lessons and tears. We are in a situation that only God knows about. God is sufficient for us, and He is the best disposer of affairs for those who brought us to this situation. By Allah Almighty, I did not write this appeal out of distress and distress. Poverty, O world, they have felt it So, I hope for you. By Allah Almighty, Lord of the Great Throne, he ate what I had in the house. By Allah, my brothers, he is my brothers by sitting in the house. Who has no food? By God, we are in a very difficult situation. We have 6 people entering the house, and my father has died, and there is no one who can depend on us and who lives in it.We live in a rented house because we cannot pay the rent we owe. '''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' ''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' ''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' ''''''''''''' My brother, my first words are: I swear to God that I will not lie to you or deceive you. I am a Yemeni girl displaced from the war. My family and I live in a rented house in Al-Shahrab 15,000 Yemenis among us, and now we owe 45,000 for 3 months. The owner of the house is one of the people who does not have mercy, by God, my brother. He comes every day, insulting us, talking about us, and moving from the house to the street because we were unable to pay him the rent. The neighbors saw us crying and came back.They came back to talk to the neighbors and we were given the weekend. So we made him swear by God. He will take us out into the street. Have mercy on him and us. Our country is due to this war and we do not find food for our day, and my brothers and I live in a difficult life. Our father died, may God have mercy on him, and we have no one in this world who was with us in these harsh circumstances. My younger brothers went out into the street and saw...The neighbors eat and stand at their door in order to give them bread even if they break it. By God, to whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth, they closed the door and expelled them and came back crying. They are dying of hunger. No one has mercy on them and a holiday is returned. I have made a living, and now if one of us helps us with a kilo of flour, I swear to God, I am dying of hunger. My brother, I am an alien to God. Then, I ask you to help me for the sake of God. I ask you, by God, to love goodness and to help me, even if you can, by messaging me on WhatsApp.On this number 00967717354582 and ask for the name of my card and send it and do not be late and may God reward you with all the best, my brothers Sagar, see how they are and help us and save us before they throw us out in the street, you will be lost or we will die of hunger. My family and I ask you, by God, if you are able to help us, do not be late and may God reward you well..`/-~~~~: ~:~¡~¡~¡~;.................😢😢😢😢😢...،.،..،.،..،..،.،..

"Politico" is all I need to know, to see where this guy's perspective came from (a big, fat paycheck. That's where) You used to be cool, Goodman. You used to be reputable, Democracy Now!
