Mike is one of the best writers I know, able to cover nasty subjects clearly and ruthlessly without straying away from his enormous heart. So much of himself went into this book. The bits I’ve had the pleasure of reading so far are illuminating, moving, and reflective — but never corny or stretched.
Hey folks, my first book is out in April! It's a narrative non-fiction account of five years of life in Berkeley Springs, WV after the "great replacement" fixated group VDARE bought a 19th century castle there.

Friends know I nearly killed myself writing it. I tried something different from other Trump-era books about the right. It emphasizes ordinary lives over extremists.
There's also stuff about what was happening inside SPLC and... it doesn't exactly measure up to the standards of a civil rights org!

Antisemitism is a lot like Qanon child abuse conspiracies in that there’s this real and bad phenomenon and, parallel to that, what can only be described as a large scale mass psychosis about a mostly fictional version of the same phenomenon

My takeaway from every new Epstein revelation is that some powerful people victimized many powerless young women, many more knew, some actively enabled it--and we're still being told that MeToo and accountability for sexual violence have gone too far
