Well, who better to ask than Michael Rectenwald?
So that is just what Lee Waaks and I did in our 14th episode of the LocoFoco Netcast.
Professor Rectenwald was the “Deplorable NYU Prof” who made such a flash a few years ago when he took on the far left political correctness on his campus.
Now he has a new book, Beyond Woke, and a novel in prep, The Virus. From which he reads.
1) Rectenwald is a good listen always. I know marxist philosophers who will never read Mises’ 100 year old demolition of Socialism, but still believe they know better anyway. It takes so much courage to treason one’s own ideological roots. To come out of the cave, one must firstly realize that some (perhaps all) beliefs one holds are as dead as the soul of religious hypocrites. I pity those people who prefer to continue living surrounded by decay, and I deeply admire Michael Rectenwald.
2) Lee C. Waaks is surprising to me. He has exactly the same voice as a certain man who eats sardines and spirulina for breakfast. Same voice. Weird.
3) And I can confirm that when Mr. Blair came to Spain during the war he was a total jerk. Many people here are mesmerized by inhumane ideas. Few will ever recant, sadly.
