I’ve been reading him on and off since The American Scene over a decade ago, his position in the debates has moved around, and I can’t quite decide if I like where he’s coming from.

City Journal had a nice review: https://www.city-journal.org/the-decadent-society-ross-douthat

On a related note, Spotted Toad doesn’t blog as much as he used to, but the day I read this I also stumbled over his comments on the movie, The Joker.

He doesn’t really make the generational case his title implies, for me, but it echoes these themes.
