For my grad seminar tomorrow, we'll be discussing @lioneltrolling.bsky.social's WHEN THE CLOCK BROKE and @pastpunditry.bsky.social's PARTISANS. A parallel I only just noticed: Ch 6 of Ganz's book is entitled, "Rage," and Ch 6 of Hemmer's book is called, "Angry White Men-And Women."

The author was never a republican. The book is not anti-intellectual. She is a trained political theorist.

Really thoughtful conversation, @lioneltrolling.bsky.social and @ezrakleinbot.bsky.social , but don’t talk about me like I’m super private about this stuff. Promote my book next time! I’m sure I talked about that asshole Tucker Carlson in there somewhere www.amazon.com/Klansmans-So...

Cover of “when the clock broke” by John Ganz. Subtitle conmen conspirators, and the origins of Trumpism. Book is black blue, red and white.
Got around to this one late but I’m glad I did. It’s outstanding. @lioneltrolling.bsky.social

Operation Drumbeat
The Right is Loud but Hollow
The right has become essentially a big propaganda apparatus; that's scary but also a weakness.

I feel like we're in a weird world where the average Dem partisan, engaged voter is better informed than most of their representatives

The thesis of my book Grand Illusion is that excesses of gold in architecture are a direct indication of despotism. As the White House festoons itself with golden doodads and proposes a gilded new ballroom, I think the thesis holds. Link in bio. 💛⚜️💛
