hating Megan McArdle specifically is a sign of some kind of personal failing some ppl go around furious about her and its never reasoned criticism always kind of unhinged but shes basically just a nice and brutally practical housewife persona shes offensive only if your crazy https://twitter.com/reaIDickMNixon/status/1253342320117682177 …

Everyone evolves, but generally people don't update their opinions after they've written you off. That's the price of giving someone a soapbox before they deserve it, and there are huge swaths of the modern mediaplex who'll suffer the same fate.

The one "evolved" person on the right I really like now is Tucker Carlson, who grew enormously from the bow-tied twerp he used to be. But he only got a second look because of his massive exposure and pretty courageous takes. Upgrading to "nice housewife columnist" wont cut it.

Been reading her off and on for years, she makes many good points but sometimes she is wrong about stuff I know about; on the other hand, ,but she sounds like someone I could be friends with.

I've always thought her arguments were pretty half-assed.... but she continues making them, reliably and mostly in good faith I've enjoyed keeping her on my radar for 10+ years, mostly to see what a McArdle-type person would argue

I'm sure she's a fine person. This notion that soapboxes need to be given to well-credentialed representatives of a point of view is how we get a banal media class that misses every major turning point in the country.
