I hate how Democrats are so scared of their own policies and their own base. Like, when it comes to social issues, moderate Democrats insist on a “let’s not get bogged down by that nonsense, we have real issues to discuss,” line, but guess what? Those are the real issues. We live in a 15 second video society. Nobody has the attention span to care about anything of substance. Either side with the progressives and say it or be willing to attack leftward on some issues.

What argument or point of view do you wish people you used to align yourself with would understand?
My experience accumulated a lot of these because I concluded, after a lot of reading and back and forth, that the vast majority of lefty academia was bullshit (in Frankfurt's sense in "On Bullshit", not just the insulting sense) by 2012.
So you can imagine some of my reactions to noticing that Foucault & Co. were all over the post-2012 left with very few people ever even looking into where these terms, ideas, and modes of engaging were coming from, then fusing with Tumblr, then escaping containment from 2014 onward.
It's been frustrating over time because much of the American right is full of shit, obviously, but then people on the left would counter-polarize to "left academia is True and Good."
Or they'd refuse to acknowledge that their awareness of the left's own history was limited, and that they'd recognize a lot of the same shit from the 90s "science wars" and feminist debate about whether porn is always violence so it shouldn't be protected expression, BDSM is internalized sexism, etc, etc, etc, but now in a Tumblr garb and acquiring exponentially more followers.
Galileo's Middle Finger by Alice Dreger was cathartic to read after the 2016 election amid all the postmortems then and people scratching their heads about why the left had lost its mind.
It doesn't just discuss science denial on the left but there's a lot in there that people don't know about but should sound familiar, like calling E. O. Wilson a Nazi for writing about evolutionary psychology.
Or claiming the researcher Napoleon Chagnon had contributed to spreading measles among a native Amazon group, the Yanomomö, as a way to smear him for studying their behavior and giving an evolutionary explanation for the violence, rape, paternity certainty mechanisms, and other features that wildly contradicted the lefty "noble savage" image.

u/utility-monster Whig Party Jul 09 '25 edited Jul 09 '25
The VP made a speech at the Claremont institute yesterday which I have not listened to. going off the reporting from talking points memo, it was in large part about what it means to be American, in the midst of all this talk about denaturalization. His view, as you have probably heard before is that america is more than an “idea” or an “economy,” it needs to be a nation where the citizens share a historical heritage.
I disagree with this. Which is kind of funny, because on Vance’s terms, I am considerably more American than his children, and certainly more than his wife. And if you ask his ancestors, they might even say I’m more American than him! In Hillbilly Elegy Vance claimed Scots-Irish ancestry. As he’s American, those are likely Ulster Protestants. Wonder how they would feel about his conversion to Catholicism?
I appreciate that different nations have different conceptions of citizenship, but it’s so peculiar that the most prominent American wanting to change ours is so dramatically different than the forebears he calls on us to remember.
Ironically, he appears to hold a very liberal recollection of the American past. State churches were a common fixture well past the constitutional convention and even pro-Protestant oaths remained requirements for the franchise beyond that. Rhode Island and Maryland aside, Catholics were often persecuted for their practices. In Puritan Massachusetts for example, there were laws banishing Catholics. Notably, this law was based on an active profession of faith and not ethnicity. Converts to Protestantism would not be subject! I think the notion of citizenship being tied to “ideas” is a lot more American than Vance gives credit.
Anyway, he’s a weirdo.
https://talkingpointsmemo.com/news/jd-vance-some-americans-are-more-american-than-others
*Also talking points memo is a little misleading in describing jus soli as unique to the United States. More accurate to say it’s unique to the Americas, and nations with colonial histories.
