Leftists must offer an alternative moral picture, not just so that we arrive at the correct political positions, but also so we build a political program that is relatable to those with the instincts to correctly reject capitalism’s ideal of authenticity. https://t.co/DLIZojaiuZ

From Trumpists like Rudy Giuliani declaring that “truth isn’t truth” to Jordan Peterson veering perilously close to “it depends on what your definition of ‘is’ is,” the Right is increasingly shaped by the parameters of postmodern culture. @MattPolProf
