  • Conservatives Can Forge a Pro-human Green Movement

    Conservatives Can Forge a Pro-human Green Movement33

    The right is understandably wary of the green movement. As it currently stands, the movement is a net negative for humanity, built on hatred of America, fabricated science, and the poison of woke “intersectionality.” But it doesn’t have to be like this.

    Conservatives Attempt a Last Stand Against Trump0

    I’ve said before that conservatives were showing symptoms of a negative identity—one that criticizes rather than offers a positive vision; one that says what it’s not rather than what it is.

    Conservatism & the Politicization of Culture0

    There is an aspect to the conservative abandonment of culture I find distressing: the increasing politicization within the conservative movement. I have witnessed a movement which began with the insights of thinkers like Russell Kirk into the primacy of imaginative vision, or what Richard Weaver called “the metaphysical dream,” turn into a highly politicized phenomenon
