Both of these positions are in line with anti-democratic traditions in conservatism. The key question on the Right has never simply been democracy or autocracy – but rather: How much authoritarianism is necessary to prevent too much democracy for too many people?

The key conflict on the Right is between those like Cheney who want to uphold white Christian hegemony from within the confines of constitutional self-government – and those who want to pursue that goal by embracing authoritarianism and militant extremism.

You can cut-and-paste your syllabus into the Canvas Syllabus page if you want (just click EDIT in the upper right); the autopopulated assignments will still follow at the end

In that case, I might just default to the books and authors that I do not have qualms about and dodge the potentially dodgy ones :)

Maybe that's a conversation you have with the author on air (after letting them know your concern and desire to have them share their own thinking)?
