By Eric Kaufmann, June 3, 2024In a new book, Eric Kaufmann examines the rise of left-liberal extremism and discusses how to check this dominant hybrid ideology. Until the taboo is reformed into a proportionate norm like any other, cultural socialism will remain a dominant force in polite society.

I call an appliance repair company which for $79 will send a man to come out and troubleshoot. A pleasant Russian fellow, Vladimir, comes to the door, very professional. But we all know it’s not the money, it is the pride you take in figuring it out by yourself. I am big fan of doing things and going to meetings, in particular the ones where I am pretty sure it is a total waste of time.
