Akash Chougule(@AkashJC):“Today’s far-right nativists claim to defend American identity, but they’re importing the European blood-and-soil politics that America has rejected. …Many on the Right have argued that liberalism weakened inherited institutions and left people free but unmoored. That is exactly why one should care about institutions that still give young people a sense of belonging.”
