A Disquisition on Tuckertardation
I have always had a great deal of respect for Dinesh D'Souza. He is smart, respectful, and literate. He's also one of the few old school conservatives who has not had his brain addled by TDS*. Here he sits down with the Triggernometry guys and has a wide ranging discussion on the situation we face and the often self inflicted challenges that the American right faces.
Well worth an hour and a half of your time.
*I'm an old school conservative and have had my trepidations about 45/47 which I went into in some detail here and here. Trump's performance in his second term have mostly, but not completely allayed those fears.

I'm not sure what sort of bona fides I might have as a conservative, or as a Republican.
I might be rabidly partisan.
My original problem with Trump was that basically I thought he was a liberal Democrat, and I still think he is a liberal Democrat. I'm just more grossly disenchanted with everyone else of stature inside the Republican Party.
Okay, I also dislike the communists, the universities, and the mainstream modern Democrats.
I think basically the two parties both went into civil war around 2016. The Democrats had Obama pushing his stuff before then, of course.
I do not feel either party is well resolved in those. Nor is any realignment settled into whatever new peace consensus.
Interesting questions, and interesting answers.

I watched about half of that extremely long interview that prompted such a disgraceful tantrum among the official conservatives. There wasn't anything particularly remarkable. Fuentes wasn't even dumping on Shapiro all that much, only built a narrative that Shapiro's ill-advised actions were what primarily redpilled him.
