The High Priests of Performative Goodness – The American Spectator | USA News and Politics (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I am wary of performative goodness. A few days ago, I wrote in The American Spectator about a speech UN Secretary-General António Guterres had just delivered. Calling him an idiot didn’t quite satisfy me, even though it is a reasonably accurate description of the man. So today, I would like to move beyond the individual (Guterres) and elevate him to a category; that is, to address everyone like him, those who belong to what I often call the postmodern Left: the faction that brought us “wokeism,”
What Is a True Friend? – The American Spectator | USA News and Politics (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Friendship is a strange thing. It’s almost impossible to define. It isn’t easy to measure, either. How much does a friendship weigh? How big is it? What physical and chemical properties does it possess? You can’t measure it by the number of calls someone makes, because Mom isn’t exactly a friend. You can’t measure it by the hours you spend together, because your boss, after all, isn’t necessarily your friend. And you can’t measure it by the number of letters they write you, because the IRS defin
Camping as a Voluntary Renunciation of Civilization – The American Spectator | USA News and Politics (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In summer, we reconnect with the caveman within. Some people bring him out in other ways, but that’s not the point of this article. During the rest of the year, the comfort of home keeps us rested and healthy enough to deal with work and domestic life. Then vacation comes, and for some inexplicable reason we seek out whatever makes us most uncomfortable, exhausted, stressed, and miserable. In other words, we go looking for a campsite. Of all the extreme activities people engage in during the sum
Why All Leftism Is Now Far Left – The American Spectator | USA News and Politics (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A 20th-century leftist might have debated how much the state should intervene in citizens’ lives. A postmodern leftist only debates how far the transformation of society and the minds of each individual citizen should go. It’s as if they have gone from being bad economists to being bad psychoanalysts. Gender politics, rewriting history, multiculturalism and open borders, or abolishing the police were issues that used to be addressed by a small group of leftists we called the “far left.” In both
The Cooler: The Ultimate User Guide – The American Spectator | USA News and Politics (opens the original)
Read excerpt
No summer vacation is complete without a cooler. On a long trip, you can forget your towel, your medicine, or even one or more of your young children — but you can’t forget the cooler. Every man is a little less of a man if he travels without a cooler packed with ice, Coca-Cola, and sandwiches. It’s the only time of year when you can fight global warming effectively without feeling like you’ve become an idiot. A cooler is a portable insulated container — from the Latin: isos (to cool); thermos (
