<whispers into a bullhorn> Buckley and Sowell are also cranks
But lubricated with the BEST whale oil!
It's incredible to invoke Buckley and Sowell as counterpoints to the modern racist GOP. Buckley was openly racist, a defender of Jim Crow, and Sowell's entire career was as an apologist for GOP racism.
Buckley, while a complete and total asshole, could at least string a sentence together. That’s what I recall. So the racists could be published😁✌️
Buckley's entire rise was just him airing his personal grievances about Harvard. Patient Zero of campus culture panic. A complete fraud who was wrong about everything.
The WSJ helped to make the monster. Now he promises to devour them along with everything else that’s good in America. WSJ needs to do its part to stop Trump before it’s too late.
The problem is there’s no non-cranks for them to point to in order to pretend this is all so new and not just the next logical step of the southern strategy.
Buckley was at least as much a prissy racist twerp piece of shit as Vance, both proof that Yale should burn.
It's like they thought it was all some kind of no-fault game. Truth is, you try to rope the tiger and it's more likely to eat you than dance in your parade.
Yeah, pro-Jim Crow, pro-Apartheid crypto-fascist Buckley.
Absolutely! And Buckley was never really all that smart. He had a mediocre mind that he filled out with a nasty, condescending manner. He was like Scalia and Alex Kozinski (former judge, CTA9). People tend to mistake snakiness for intelligence. They're not the same.
