    If somebody wants to start a new political party they should make it economically left and culturally right. That’s the big unserved group in America right now.https://www.theamericanconservative.com/articles/pete-seegers-conservative-socialism/ …

        maybe like a new kind of socialism where it's also nationalism. like if your blood is connected to the soil, somehow, you qualify for benefits from the state. how come nobody has thought of this before

        david, i quite genuinely cannot fathom how catastrophically poor at basic critical thinking you must be in order to consider pete seeger in any way a figure of the right

        I totally expect people like Brooks to get paid to write half-baked takes like this, but to put it on Seeger is a nice additional insult to our intelligence
