"#Kennedy’s infamous #antivax allegiances are also a telltale symptom of mogul brain—an ironclad conviction formed principally out of the delusive gut instincts of a powerful Type A male personality who commands automatic deference in a world where no one seriously questions his beliefs and pronouncements, no matter how objectively dangerous and daft they may be." - #ChrisLehmann

"#Vance’s oration is an important phase in the ongoing evolution of right-wing #Trumpism. With his nomination, the slapdash and xenophobic excesses of Trump’s prior two campaigns are becoming refined and sharpened into a potent, albeit bastardized, brand of pseudo-populist nationalism." - #ChrisLehmann

"This moment of reckoning could not be more poorly timed, but #Biden’s performance has driven it home in unmistakable terms.

"In this worldview, civic-minded child-rearing, like every other social problem, was ultimately a managerial challenge. Young people are there to be fixed by the moral wisdom of their elders. When they can’t be fixed, they must be grimly handed over to the carceral state. #Boomers in power long to be both market rebels and cultural disciplinarians..."

"Everything about the breakout appeal of #RichMenNorthOfRichmond is steeped in an evangelical culture of bellicose ideological confrontation [..] If any howl of backlash-themed provocation issues from a Southern-branded bard like Anthony or Aldean, it’s automatically stamped as 'authentic' as it moves down the culture-trust production line."
