The project of this blog is to lift right wing righter's thoughts while domesticating them for a midwit centrist audience. Hence the silly and spurious jab at MAGA people thinking they're oppressed (silly - that is how leftists think!)
This was great. I'd never heard of Cuddihy or the Fox/Lion dichotomy, but it rings true (even if I'm partial to Berlin's foxes). I often say, "elites need to preach what they practice." Separately, I think a culture of self-deprecation could explain at least some of our babymaking malaise (and wrote about here https://www.therandomwalk.co/p/random-walk-at-night-its-babymaking)
The reduction in civility accelerated with the illegal discrimination in colleges against hiring Republicans. Won’t get better until there are 30% or more Republican professors at all top colleges.
It would have been nice to reference second city bureaucrat's substack. He has written extensively on this topic and is a great resource.

Nice introduction to Second City Bureaucrat's articles.
Good primer on some key topics. Cuddihy's Ordeal of Civility is hard to find but worth it.
