[NoRapture]

Let's see...Ayn Rand, Toby Keith, Sean Hannity...

[Figlio di Moros]

You got a problem with Toby Keith?

[millie_(A)TCK]

great thread.

[Abood]

Ann Coulter.

[Dave]

Fyodor Dostoevsky, Tom Wolfe, John Updike, Ernst Jünger, Alexander Solzenitzen, Thomas Carlyle, Yukio Mishima...

[Oxymoron]

Machievelli perhaps?

[Nets]

Dave wins.

[Potemkin]

What Dave said, plus Ezra Pound, TS Eliot, Henry Williamson, etc. etc.

It seems the cultural level of most PoFoites leaves something to be desired....

[Celtic Communism]

Louis-Ferdinand Celine & Knut Hamsun.

Both were very anti-American, incidentally.

[Potemkin]

Almost all European and Oriental conservatives and right-wingers have been horrified by American society and politics.

[Dave]

Indeed. Some of their criticisms had merit, others betrayed a failure to understand America. Julius Evola's below quote does both.

America ... has created a 'civilization' that represents an exact contradiction of the ancient European tradition. It has introduced the religion of praxis and productivity; it has put the quest for profit, great industrial production, and mechanical, visible, and quantitative achievements over any other interest. It has generated a soulless greatness of a purely technological and collective nature, lacking any background of transcendence, inner light, and true spirituality. America has [built a society where] man becomes a mere instrument of production and material productivity within a conformist social conglomerate.

Now however we're among the most conservative Western peoples so shut it Celtic Communism.

[Huntster]

Great Left-Wing Artists and Authors:

Does not include NoRapture.......................

[Oxymoron]

Now I want a list of succesful liberal warriors.

[DanDaMan]

Conservative: Mark R Levin, Glenn Beck.

Now I want a list of succesful liberal warriors.

MSNBC, NBC, CNN.
List every media loosing readers and viewers and you pretty much list the Left.

[Huntster]

Now I want a list of succesful liberal warriors.

That list doesn't include NoRapture, either.............

[Dave]

Now I want a list of succesful liberal warriors.

Lester Pearson, Jack Kennedy, John Rawls, and Gene Roddenberry

As much as I love stereotyping , both this thread and that question are stupid.

[NoRapture]

I read that Wolfe was a righty. But Updike? No way. In fact the two are in a feud over the very meaning of literature and hate each others' guts.

[Potemkin]

Dave is right, Updike was definitely on the right wing of politics. What, you think two right-wingers can't hate each others' guts? Stalin and Trotsky were both left-wing, yet I hear that they didn't get on too well.

[Oxymoron]

Yes the question is stupid, that was my point. Although I wanted someone to start defending pacifism.
