      Joseph Campbell popularized a reactionary longing for myth and vitality among boomer libs in the 70s/80s. His success symptomatized the demise of mainline Protestantism. BAP’s success selling these same ideas to young rightists reveals Christianity’s weakened status on the right.https://twitter.com/daily_barbarian/status/1269386578306068481 …

      But I think what's ironic is that on the liberal/left all of these mythological inventions were quickly commodified and now represent something of a decadence themselves in the form of the bourgeoisie rituals of wellness, expensive yoga studios, ayahausca retreats, etc

      Definitely, and also to a sort of decillectivization of myth where you just live out archetypes in the course of your individual late capitalist existence (and redeem it by realizing this)

      This looks like Tom of Finland for straight people and I fucking love it.

      Tom of Finland is a bitter fruit of that physique photography and physical culture tree. Back when I was a history prof, I'd do a lecture entirely of 20s/30s erotic physique pics, then Tom of Finland, then just actual (male only) erotic cinema. Students thought I was far right!

          I think I'm the only professor who gave such lectures over and over and not only didn't end up on one of those "professor watch lists" but in fact found myself considered among the most conservative profs at the university, somehow

          Damn. That's insane. I went to the University of West Florida and most of my professors were actual registered Republicans and right-wingers so that misperception probably would have gotten you tenure down here. Lol
