read the book

seeing this book makes me embarrassed because one time i was talking to somebody as if i had read it but realized partway through the conversation that i was thinking of another book

>>16385442
I was thinking of buying this book because I'm currently reading lots of anti-liberal literature - de Maistre, Cortes, etc. - but as I was about to buy it on Amazon I checked the "related books" section and saw 10 books that had cookie-cutter titles and descriptions so I got the feeling this was just one of those cash-grabbing mass-produced pieces of crap. Is it actually good?

Yeah it is. It’s a meme title and for that reason I was put off, but I read an article of Deneen’s on First Things that convinced me to give it a shot. Deneen’s way more radical than he presents himself

Essential reading.

What is the name of the MacIntyre-Deneen-Lasch-Berry-Vance post-liberal school of thought?

By saying this you have only proven him right

Illiberal Catholicism? They're all Catholics, right? And they're all pretty much picking up a strain of anti-liberal, anti-mass-democracy thought that's always been present in the Church. I know in particular that Deneen and MacIntyre are Catholic converts.

>>16385442
Why? What's the thesis? Or one of the arguments? I will legitimately read this if you can provide anything of substance. The answer in reality is low IQ brown people fyi.

The world is ruled by China. Westerners are hilarious, they're totally irrelevant but completely filled with self importance. They are in their death throes and only ever gasp about their supremacy.

You DO follow Deneen on Twitter, right, Anons?

How bizarre. You'd think they would have gone the other way and accused any white person who hesitated in donating their precious organs as a racist.

Catholics have had an under appreciated role in destroying western civilization. The Vatican quite literally is banking on the 3rd world to replace European Christianity and adopts policies precisely to this effect. Africa is the future of Christendom, scary to think.

Which is full throated democracy

Compared to the protestants they are mere amateurs

>the cover
what does it mean by this?

>>16389797
Um, is there a full version?

>>16389763
Stop acting as if modern events reflect the entirety of history. Catholics have always said it's of the upmost importance that a people's culture remains in tact and allows for wars in the defense of it. Christianity was only Jewish for it's first 30 or so years, after that it became totally absorbed into Greek and Roman teaching that it became an entirely different animal.
Pretending as if the modern Pope and Church (which are nightmarish) are how Catholics have always been is retarded and childish, anyone with any concept of Church history knows that's false. Many theologians and even prominent Popes literally laid out spiritual justifications for defending one's own race with the sword.

They are far worse than the protestants

>>16390320
How so

All expressly economic or political books are dork books that are more concerned with theorizing the needs and desires of a populace instead of working with and approaching said populace from a non-academic or intellectual level which makes them entirely ineffective
