One of the authors Robinson critiques, Allie Beth Stuckey, had a batshit interview with Ross Douthat in the New York Times, because we're back to 2016's fad of trying to understand the conservative mindset? Because the New York Times has always been engaged in the project of giving liberals permission to embrace conservative thinking? Because America has eroded the concept of literacy to the point where words are meaningless and now even the consumption of printed matter is now a performative method of reinforcing group identity?
Anywho these people are creeps and monsters and a right thinking society would've treated their naked misanthropy like nuclear waste and exiled them to the desert with a warning plaque.
