Two quotes from this article in the #Atlantic by Noah #Hawley:
- moral reasoning develops through consequences—not punishment, necessarily, but experiencing the effects of your actions on others, receiving honest feedback,
- #Musk called empathy “the fundamental weakness of Western civilization.” When he took a chainsaw to the federal government with DOGE, he did so with the air of a man who believed that nothing matters—poverty, chaos, human suffering.

It's great to see Senator Hawley questioning Zuckerberg at the trial. The two-year-old video has received 2.3 million views and asks fundamental questions to one of the oligarchs who feeds the Trump regime and about his dangerous tool for hate speech, Instagram.
What has changed since then? Zuckerberg has become more powerful.

#NoahHawley sforna l'ennesima opera derivativa di un film di successo per farne una #serietv, ovvero #alienearth, e devo dire mi ha lasciato per ora con delle sensazioni molto contrastanti
Come per (il bellissimo) #fargo, #Hawley usa la franchise cinematografica di derivazione come punto di partenza per raccontare qualcosa di completamente nuovo, ed effettivamente ci sono degli aspetti molti interessanti in questo "redivivo" alien seriale (soprattutto il tema dei "sintetici" che

From AlterNet:
"U.S. Senator Josh #Hawley (R-MO) says the legislation he is filing to send $600 tariff rebate checks to Americans are not for 'Biden voters,' but for 'Trump blue-collar voters.'" . . . . ."'You'd give it to our people.'"
So only those who voted the "right way" get tax moneys paid by all voters? The end of Democracy!
Suggest Stanford U & Yale Law demand the return of Hawley's diplomas. He obviously failed all his poliSci, history, economics & civics exams. -

Can I just take a moment to say FUCK YOU to Josh #Hawley, on of our senators here in #Missouri... You may have forced your way in to the womb, but you will not be telling me what I can install on my own devices. Also, you've lived in #Virginia for years, there will be a legal challenge to your residence before you run for Senator in Missouri again! https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/markets/deepseek-download-to-be-criminalized-in-us-could-mean-20-years-in-prison-100m-fine/ar-AA1ylMxM?ocid=socialshare

Surely we should be calling this “The Spook-Hawley AI Censorship Act”?
I hate it when I’m right; back in 2023 I wrote:
(3) If the Government is encouraged to suppress general access to code, it will attempt to do so; and then the suppressions will fail several years, perhaps a few decades, later.
…comparing this to the old ITAR regime; see also my more recent blogpost on the Regulation of Public [AI] Power; but anyway: via the LinkedIn of Lukasz Olejnik, we learn about this new draft bill:
This Act may be cited as the ‘‘Decoupling America’s Artificial Intelligence Capabilities from China Act of 2025’’.
So, DAAICCA? — wherein, from the mind of Josh Hawley, we find:
PROHIBITIONS ON IMPORT AND EXPORT OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE OR GENERATIVE ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE TECHNOLOGY OR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
…and restrictions upon:
…RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT THAT BENEFITS THE PEOPLE’S REPUBLIC OF CHINA…
…and:
PROHIBITION ON UNITED STATES PERSONS HOLDING AN INTEREST IN OR PROVIDING FINANCING TO CHINESE ENTITIES INVOLVED IN ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT.
So basically yeah, some Americans are proposing a huge export-control-based global censorship regime like ITAR all over again, and it will fail the same way if not beforehand / if not also causing more harm to America than good.

Post-Dispatch endorsement: #LucasKunce for the United States Senate
“Calling #Hawley the “worst sitting senator in America right now.”
Incumbent U.S. Sen. #JoshHawley, R., and Lucas Kunce, the Democrat running for the seat, give their closing statements at a September debate.
The #Missouri Press Association hosted a debate for U.S. #Senate candidates on Friday, Sept. 20, 2024, at the History Museum on the Square's Fox Theatre…
#Paywall, and I don’t have a subscription either 😢

Senators are privately (and publicly) saying they hope Donald Trump
💥stays out of the internal election to replace #Mitch #McConnell as Senate GOP leader.Why it matters:
None of them know — or it's a damn good secret — whether the felon-candidate will make an endorsement.But senators and advisors fear a Trump intervention could turn the secret ballot leader election into a public feud.
"I said, 'Sir, if I was you, I would stay out of the race, because there's no win for you in this,'" Sen. #Markwayne #Mullin (R-Okla.) told us about a recent call with Trump.
"I hope not," said Sen. #Thom #Tillis, when asked if he thinks Trump will weigh in. "I think outside influence could be problematic."
"He's offered some views on it to me,"Sen. #Josh #Hawley (R-Mo.) told us. "It's safe to say he has a pretty consistent prediction of who he thinks it'll be." -- Hawley said he did not know if Trump would weigh in.
Between the lines:
This the first real competitive Senate GOP leadership race of the Trump-era,
and his endorsement still carries a lot of weight with a segment of the conference.McConnell has had a tumultuous relationship with the pussy-grabber.
The top two candidates
— Sens. John #Thune and John #Cornyn
— each have had rocky relationships with Trump.
However, they have worked to make amends.After Jan. 6, Thune denounced Trump and initially endorsed Sen. Tim Scott (R-S.C.) for president.
Cornyn has said the GOP needed to move on from Trump.
Senate sources do not talk about Sen. Rick #Scott's (R-Fla.) bid as seriously as Thune's or Cornyn's, though he has a good relationship with Trump.
"Sen. Scott is focused on dramatically changing the way the Senate operates and creating a member-driven process," according to spokesperson McKinley Lewis.Sources often describe Thune as the likely favorite,
though they say not to discount how much Cornyn's long history of hard-dollar fundraising for Senate campaigns means to people.Cornyn told us it's been a few weeks since he spoke with Trump about the leadership race.
But he visited Mar-a-Lago a couple months ago "to talk about planning for the future,"
adding they've been "visiting with some of the transition folks."Mullin said Trump "likes" Thune despite their rocky past.
The Oklahoma Republican has publicly backed Thune.
Some sources suspect there could be a late entry:
NRSC Chair Steve #Daines (R-Mont.) is the most-floated name.The bottom line:
There's not a lot of incentive for senators benefiting from both Thune and Cornyn's aggressive fundraising efforts to commit too early."If one of them felt that they really had a majority, I think they would not be shy about saying that,
but I don't think anybody does," Hawley said.https://www.axios.com/2024/10/03/trump-senate-republicans-mcconnell-thune-cornyn

Stephen Wolfe grew up in Napa, California,
and his father was an admirer of the right-wing pundit and erstwhile GOP presidential candidate Pat Buchanan.After attending West Point and serving in the Army, Wolfe earned advanced degrees before leaving academia to
“do the Wendell Berry thing”
in North Carolina with his wife and four kids.Over the summer, Wolfe, 41, agreed to speak with me on the condition that I refer to him as “Dr. Wolfe”
and call him an “expert on Christian nationalism.”The Dr. Wolfe I spoke with was a more muted version of the firebrand I’d watched online.
He said his ideal version of America would be led by a Caesar figure.
Gay marriage would be strictly prohibited.
Women would not be allowed to vote
—instead, men would vote for their households.When I brought up the bit from his book about heretics being killed, he grew annoyed.
“I do think it’s permissible, in principle, for a state to suppress theological heresy,
but that doesn’t mean that it’s prudent or proper,
suitable in every circumstance or every tradition or way of life.”The Founding Fathers, he added, had encouraged religious liberty,
so killing heretics would not be appropriate in the United States that we inhabit.We turned to remarks he had made at a recent conference convened by Brian Sauvé:
“I think we need to reflect on this idea of Judeo-Christianity,
or Judeo-Christian worldview,
or Judeo-Christian whatever,
and really eradicate that from our thinking.Because if we say that America is a
Judeo-Christian country,
then it can’t be a Christian country, okay?”What role, I asked him, would Jews play?
After a deep sigh, he told me that they would be allowed to “exercise their religion freely.”
We spoke a week before Vance’s RNC speech,
and Wolfe’s remarks helped me understand what the TheoBros heard in Vance’s phrase about
"America as a people".The founders, Wolfe noted, intended for their country to be “Anglo-Protestant with an American inflection.”
America, he continued, is “a place of settlement and rootedness,
but it’s an open ethnicity in which people can become one of us.”Which is to say that, like some others, Wolfe is not necessarily opposed to the idea of nonwhite people in America
—as long as they agree to assimilate to the Anglo-Protestant dominant culture.In this telling, America is not a pluralistic society at all,
but rather one in which there exists an uneasy truce between Christians and those they reluctantly tolerate.Toward the end of our conversation, I asked Wolfe what motivated him.
“I want Christians to be more assertive and to recognize the Christian heritage of the American way of life,
and to seek to restore that,” he said.“This is a Christian country, and we’ve got to work to restore it to what it once was"
In his keynote address at Sauvé’s conference, titled “Why Multicultural Pluralism Fails and What to Build Instead,”
Wolfe called the concept of America as a melting pot
“an early 20th-century idea cooked up by a Jew in New York who despised the confident Anglo-Protestant establishment.”WASPs were the “distinct ethnicity” of America, he insisted,
and America should only welcome those who aspired to assimilate.
As he put it, “This is our homeland, and we welcome you on the condition of conformity.”
Or, in the words of JD Vance, America “is a group of people.”

whose chief architect, Russell Vought, posted on X that he was “proud to work with @William_E_Wolfe on scoping out a sound Christian Nationalism.”A few months later, the Bucks County Beacon uncovered a lengthy online manifesto on the goals of Christian nationalists.
The document, which listed Wolfe and Joel Webbon as contributing editors
and Oklahoma Sen. #Dusty #Deevers as a co-author,
called for “civil magistrates” to usher in 💥“the establishment of the Ten Commandments as the foundational law of the nation.”The manifesto doesn’t specify exactly how Christian nationalists should achieve these goals.
As Tabachnick, the extremism researcher, interprets it, the TheoBros are imagining a utopia where “they are going to be free to be entrepreneurs in all different senses,
including the tech world that they’re mixing with so freely.”The key, she said, is that authoritarianism “is required to have the utopian vision.”
Last year, the extremism watchdog group Right Wing Watch posted a video of Wolfe quoting a scripture passage.
There are times when “even the God of peace proclaims by his providence, ‘to arms!’” he says.“If we have ever lived in a point of time in American history since then that we could argue that now is a time ‘to arms’ again, I think we are getting close.”
William Wolfe’s Christian nationalism manifesto made the rounds on social media,
but in mainstream conservative outlets,
it was #Stephen #Wolfe
(no relation to William)
who brought TheoBro ideas to the wider world.In his book, which was praised by editors at the Federalist and the American Conservative,
Wolfe paints America as a “#gynocracy” whose government and culture have been feminized by unhappy women leaders.
(Sound familiar?)He has stated on X that women should not have the right to vote, and that “interethnic” marriage can be “sinful.”

One eager customer is 38-year-old TheoBro #Andrew #Isker
—the pastor who interned at Wilson’s church,
studied divinity at New Saint Andrews,
and co-wrote a book on Christian nationalism with #Andrew #Torba,
the openly antisemitic CEO of the social media platform #Gab.In July, Isker announced on X that he planned to move his family of seven to lead a church in a New Founding community in Tennessee.
Life in his native Minnesota, he said, had become untenable because of permissive laws around trans rights and abortion,
not to mention how hospitable the state has been to #refugees.“Minnesota is one of the top destinations for resettling foreign people hostile to our way of life,” he said.
That month, Isker spoke at a Texas conference about the
“war on white America”
alongside #Paul #Gottfried,
the mentor of prominent white nationalist #Richard #Spencer.The conference was hosted by the "True Texas Project",
a far-right group with ties to Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) and Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton.Like many TheoBros,
Isker sees much to like in Vance.In early July, before Trump announced his running mate, Isker referred to him as
“Senator JD Vance (R-Heritage America).”In late July, he posted a video of Vance and told his 29,000 followers,
“You need to double down on childless cat lady discourse.
Kamala sees happy, large families and hates them.
She wants them destroyed.
She wants you to never be able to have this.
She is a nasty, bitter harridan who hates all that is true, good, and beautiful.”One problem is that there simply are not enough TheoBros to populate Christian communities like the one Isker plans to move to.
Enter #William #Wolfe,
the founder of the
"Center for Baptist Leadership", which aims to persuade members of the Southern Baptist Convention that it,
the largest of all Protestant denominations in the United States,
has fallen prey to the corrupting forces of liberalism.Baptists are only the beginning.
Wolfe wants to win over the entire evangelical mainstream,
which he and other TheoBros refer to as “#Big #Eva.”In August, he posted on X,
“Once you realize that Big Eva thinks it’s a bigger sin to desire to preserve the customs, heritage, values, and cultural homogeneity of your own nation
than to kill the unborn in the womb, you can better understand their moral framework.”#Josh #Abbotoy #Claremont #Institute #Project2025 #Heritage #Foundation #Chris #Buskirk #Rockbridge #Network #Leonard #Leo #Peter #Thiel #Vance #Josh #Clemans #Charles #Haywood #warlord #Nate #Fischer #Brian #Sauvé #Mefferd #Joel #Webbon #dominant #man #submissive #woman #Hawley #Johnson #Lee #Vance #Trump #Turning #Point #USA #Tucker #Carlson #flamethrower #Douglas #Wilson #Calvinism #Vance #hypermasculinity #birthrates #ethnonationalism #misogyny #TheoBros #Calvin #Rushdoony #homeschooling #charismatic #New #Apostolic #Reformation #reformed #TheoBros #apostles #prophets #Bible #postmillennialism #Aaron #Renn #Andrew #Isker #Douglas #Wilson #shared #history #patriarchal #Christian #nationalism #young #pastors #Christian #prince #women #flogging #Franco #multiculturalism #Taylor #Swift

An even more well-connected Wilson emulator is
#Josh #Abbotoy,
executive director of "American Reformer"
and managing partner of a venture capital fund and real estate firm called "New Founding".A former fellow of the right-wing think tank the #Claremont #Institute, Abbotoy reported that he recently participated in a #Project2025 presidential transition “strategic planning session”
hosted by the right-wing think tank the #Heritage #Foundation.Bucks County Beacon reporter Jennifer Cohn revealed venture capitalist #Chris #Buskirk was listed as the editor and publisher.
In 2022, Buskirk co-founded the #Rockbridge #Network,
a collection of powerful Trump donors including Catholic judicial kingmaker #Leonard #Leo and Silicon Valley billionaire #Peter #Thiel.Another co-founder of the Rockbridge Network?
None other than
JD #Vance.Thiel, Vance’s mentor and former employer, is also a major funder of the National Conservatism movement.
Obsessed with global birthrates, Thiel spent $10 million on his protégé’s successful 2022 Senate campaign.
In July, shortly after Trump had announced Vance as his running mate,
Cohn surfaced a tweet by New Founding’s network director,
#Josh #Clemans:
a photo of Vance with several New Founding staffers.The caption read “Our guy.”
New Founding lists as a partner the "Society for American Civic Renewal",
a secretive fraternal order founded by Indiana shampoo baron #Charles #Haywood,who describes himself as an aspiring Christian “#warlord.”
According to founder #Nate #Fischer, New Founding wants to “form the backbone of a renewed American regime”
and that its members
“understand the nature of authority and its legitimate forceful exercise.”But its main public-facing project appears to be turning tracts of land in Appalachia into Christian communities.
Promotional materials describe a community of
“unmatched seclusion”

In August, Joel Webon remarked on his show that “a lot of people are gonna be surprised” when
“you’re spending eternity worshipping Christ next to Stonewall Jackson and Robert E. Lee and Jonathan Edwards,
and, you know, George Whitefield and Martin Luther King Jr.’s in hell.”Webbon is so impressed by his own audacity that he maintains an online list of all the controversies in which he’s become embroiled.
There, he explains why he called Christian men living in California “stupid”
(they could just move to a red state);
why he once ordered his wife to stop reading a book on theology
(he didn’t want her exposed to beliefs that were different from his own);
and why he believes in a patriarchal household structure
(the Bible says so).
Webbon, who is planning to host a conference in Texas next spring called
“Christ Is King: How to Defeat Trashworld!”
maintains that a
“return to the Constitution is impossible”
and that the only viable alternative is the Ten Commandments.Some of Wilson’s other acolytes are attempting to create their own versions of Moscow, Idaho.
Take #Brian #Sauvé, a 33-year-old Christian recording artist, podcaster, and pastor of "Refuge Church" in Ogden, Utah.
Like Webbon, Sauvé wasn’t always reformed
—Refuge began as a charismatic Christian church.After the lead pastor resigned in a scandal, the then-24-year-old Sauvé ascended to take his place,
immersed himself in reformed theology,
and moved the church in a new direction.Today, he presides over a Moscow-esque ecosystem:
a publishing house called "New Christendom Press",
as well as "St. Brendan’s Classical Christian Academy",
modeled after those in Wilson’s network.“Can you feel it in the sails?” reads St. Brendan’s website.
“The stiff breeze out of Moscow, Idaho? -- We can.”
On his three podcasts and to his more than 53,000 followers on X, Sauvé regularly states that women’s primary function is to bear children.
In July, after Vance’s comments about “childless cat ladies who are miserable” began widely circulating,
he posted:
“It is desperately sad to think of all the intentionally barren women who will find themselves totally alone in their 50s,
realizing their irreversible mistake.They will wish they could trade it all
—money, vacations, independence, all of it
—for children they can now never have.”But unlike more mainstream conservatives,
Sauvé does not even pretend to champion the idea of a
Judeo-Christian nation.He posted in July, “[O]ur political system is heavily influenced by Jews who reject Christ and embrace all manner of evils.”

In subsequent videos, Douglas Wilson tackled women’s culpability in rape,
the dark side of empathy,
and the virtues of “something called the patriarchy
—that which, according to our
soi-disant and lisping political theorists, must be smashed...
Only they say something like ‘thmasth.’”Wilson has used his platforms to anoint the next generation of ultraconservative reformed Christian pastors,
all of whom happened to be men.#Mefferd, the conservative Christian journalist, told me that Wolfe’s "The Case for Christian Nationalism"
got traction in mainstream Christian circles in part
“because Doug Wilson endorsed.”Another Wilson protégé is #Joel #Webbon, a 38-year-old pastor who hosts a podcast and YouTube show,
which he films from a wingback leather chair in a book-lined room.Webbon wasn’t always reformed
— he is an alumnus of a Bible school run by a New Apostolic Reformation affiliated outfit,
— which he now considers “straight-up heretical.”In his 20s, he broke from the group, moved to Texas, and started his own church.
In a video from a few years ago, Webbon credited Wilson with emboldening him to say whatever he wanted
—like telling a guest that the Founding Fathers weren’t responsible for the slave trade because Africans had done the actual kidnapping and enslaving.For Webbon, it was intensely liberating to watch Wilson speak in public without worrying about being canceled.
“You stay in your little corner, you stay on your little leash, because you’re like, I don’t know what will happen,” Webbon said.
“But when you see some other guy do it, and you’re like
—that’s the worst thing that can happen?Vice writes an article about you? [Christianity Today editor-in-chief] Russell Moore won’t invite you to his birthday party anymore?
Like, that’s it.”At a recent conference, he registered dismay over immigrants in his community.
“It’s like full, straight-up Hindu garb at our neighborhood swimming pool,
that my daughter is asking [about and] I’m trying to explain.”

Douglas Wilson's influence over Moscow Idaho has not been without controversy.
In a 2021 Vice exposé, former members of "Christ Church" alleged that ministers had encouraged them to stay in abusive relationships.
That tracks with Wilson’s 1999 book, "Fidelity: How to Be a One-Woman Man",
in which he wrote,“The sexual act cannot be made into an egalitarian pleasuring party.
A man penetrates, conquers, colonizes, plants.
A woman receives, surrenders, accepts.”For that reason, Wilson wrote, the dynamic of a #dominant #man and a #submissive #woman is
“an erotic necessity.”(Wilson called allegations of the church urging women to stay in abusive relationships “categorically false.”)
Wilson has also promoted another form of dominance.
In the 1996 book "Southern Slavery: As It Was",
Wilson and his co-author argued that the master-slave dynamic was “a relationship based upon mutual affection and confidence,”
-- and “there has never been a multi-racial society which has existed with such mutual intimacy and harmony in the history of the world” as that of the antebellum South.(In a 2020 blog post, Wilson said he now allows that while “the benevolent master is not a myth, the idea of the horrific taskmaster is no abolitionist myth either.”)
When I asked Wilson about his controversial statements, he likened himself to a chef who strategically deploys jalapeno peppers:
“Then some of my enemies online have combed through my writings, have gathered up all the jalapenos and put them on one Ritz cracker.”
In July, at the "National Conservatism Conference"
in Washington, DC, Wilson shared the stage with Sens. Josh #Hawley (R-Mo.),
Ron #Johnson (R-Wis.),
and Mike #Lee (R-Utah),
as well as #Vance,
who auditioned his “America is a people” bit a week before his star turn at the GOP convention.Wilson agrees with Vance’s suggestion that children should be allotted votes
-- managed by their parents.“I would like to see elections where households vote,” he told me.
Men, as the heads of households, would actually cast the votes.
Though he believes that women’s suffrage was “a mistake,”
he would allow a special exception for single mothers.Wilson offered the crowd a few one-liners
(“I’m a Presbyterian, not a Lesbyterian”),but mostly, he talked about the persecution of Christians:
“It used to be that the sexually troubled had to keep their kinks hidden away in the closet,” he mused.
“Now it is the conservative Christian who needs to keep his virtues hidden in the recesses of the closet.”
After the "National Conservatism Conference", Wilson appeared at the "Believers’ Summit",
which was headlined by #Trump and hosted by the conservative political group #Turning #Point #USA.But it’s not just conferences and interviews with the likes of #Tucker #Carlson where Wilson promotes his ideas.
He has a blog, a podcast, and a YouTube channel, thanks mostly to the urging of his children and younger colleagues.
One example is that every year since 2018, Wilson has been celebrating what he calls
No Quarter November:“The month where we say out loud what everyone is thinking.”
In a 2023 video, which was the brainchild of one of his sons, Wilson sits at a sumptuously appointed Thanksgiving table,
surrounded by his children and grandchildren,
and addresses the camera.“If you think of my blog as a shotgun,” he says,
“this is the month when I saw off all my typical, careful qualifications and blast away with a double-barreled shorty.”His wife, clad in an apron, brings out a turkey and places it in front of him,
and then the tranquil scene is interrupted by a blaring alarm and a glowing red “perimeter breach” sign.Wilson excuses himself, heads to his garage, and straps on a #flamethrower.
After using it to light a cigar, he aims the fire at cardboard cutouts of Disney princesses Elsa and Ariel, and the logos of Instagram, TikTok, Twitter, and Netflix.
Wilson’s willingness to make campy content sets him apart, says Rachel Tabachnick,
an extremism researcher who has been studying Christian nationalism for decades.“Instead of a crotchety old guy talking about stoning people, he’s like, super cool,” she says. “He’s witty.”
