This week’s leak of the draft majority opinion is unprecedented. Most likely, the leaker set out to intimidate one or more of the justices and affect the outcome of the case. Or hoped to destroy the Court as an institution—in the approving phrase of one Left commentator, to “burn this place down.”

Five Ways Elon Musk Can Improve the Digital Public Square. Twitter’s internal culture is toxic, extremely woke, and hostile to American principles like free speech and free expression. The best way to solve this problem is, frankly, for Musk to fire a lot of people.

The architect Christopher Alexander (1936–2022), who passed away last month, showed us how to reconnect to the world through architecture. His designs and writings offer an antidote to our civilization’s eager pursuit of self-annihilation.

In a healthy academic culture, the ethics of debate and argument include a commitment to civility and a courteous, professional demeanor. How far we are from that now. A wokeist approach of personal attack based in name-calling and insults prevails today.

The 9.9 Percent: The New Aristocracy That Is Entrenching Inequality and Warping Our Culture. Most of the book reads as a moral exhortation to the 9.9 percent. As a book of political economy, or even simple political persuasion, The 9.9 Percent is a complete failure.

San Fransicko: Why Progressives Ruin Cities. The media and most of the political class had been doing their level best to foment race war by blowing up ordinary local-crime blotter news into national hysterias about innocent blacks being hunted down by malevolent whites.

The Long Slide: Thirty Years in American Journalism, by Tucker Carlson. The book evokes a bygone age, an era of magazine and newspaper journalism that seems golden in retrospect, and is now so completely gone that one must strain to imagine that it ever existed at all.

Contemporary progressivism faces a pressing dilemma. It must continue the sexual revolution’s legacy of free love and sex-positivity, but it must do so in a Pornhub age, in which maximal sexual liberty has produced not an egalitarian paradise but a brutal human marketplace.

Zemmour’s rise coincides with a paradigm shift in French society: the increased willingness of those in the public square to criticize the left. The longstanding custom in French public life was that when it came to social and cultural matters, the left was exempt from criticism.

I have been a professor at Bucknell University for twenty years. It is my considered view that a parent with the best interests of a male child at heart should be intensely concerned about what he is likely to experience at a school like the one in which I work.

In his 1944 lecture “The Inner Ring” C. S. Lewis made a profound observation about social exclusivity, one applicable to today’s institutions of higher learning. The academy rewards narrow, trendy agendas that impose upon human experience the procrustean narratives of anger, grievance, and division.

Jane Austen‘s Comic Moralism | Peter J. Leithart. Austen is funny not in spite of her moral firmness but because of it. As Lewis observed, “the hard core of morality and even of religion seems to me to be just what makes good comedy possible.”

The New American Right. After too many decades of liberty without ends, freedom without limits, in many situations the new right must re-erect lost barriers. We need to restore the balance between liberty and responsibility, between personal freedom and an awareness of what freedom is for.
