The new populist right is demonized and feared by many. But does this movement actually have a point? Surprisingly, David Brooks of all people, gives the question serious consideration.
Well said. Just read this great article on stupidity, as Bonhoeffer has laid it out, by @AlexandraHudson on Civic Renaissance and thought it would make a great dialogue partner for your article. It is easy to judge the lesser educated as dumb while being blind for institutional and elitist stupidity. I have not grown up with elitist education as it is perfected in the US and I am still not quite getting it. So I guess Brooks has a point here. Thank you.
