Who cares which is the 'bonus' when both are great? Absolutely agree on The Americans. As to the ever-increasing echo chambers nurtured by the internet, I imagine that the hucksters of the past look with great envy upon the likes of Fox News and MSNBC: the old-timey frauds had to work really hard to find people who might be open to their nonsense, while the respective consumers of hard left and hard right 'news' self-select and essentially prostrate themselves without much effort at all on the parts of those respective outlets and their like.
Quick question: What do you mean when you say “nationalism”?
I think preserving the concept of the Nation-State, which I view as a critical safeguard against one-world government. A free market of forms of Government. IMHO, Communism only fell because people found out how much better off the Free World was. What if there was no Free World with which to compare?
Fascinating history of the Nicene Creed. Thank you.
I found Kahneman’s book explained so many things I’d seen in my 44 years in markets (and in market’s evil twin, politics). 😊. I try to apply his wisdom to myself first, then others. I try to avoid confirmation bias by following people whose politics are different than mine. Usually former Democrats like Bari Weiss/TFP and Taibbi/Kirn. One pleasant thing I discovered is that the Venn diagram of our basic values overlap like 85%, so we aren’t as different as the media charlatans would have us believe.
