p.s. afterthought on my comment citation above: perfect example why I tend to be a First Amendment absolutist even though I myself prefer moderated forums. Even for hate speech, which this is not (except maybe towards "the Republican establisment" and "liberals like Frank Bruni.") How can one even pretend to know and understand what "those other people" are thinking if they don't feel free to say it somewhere?

In reply to Yes, Steve Bannon Should Terrify You

one of the article comments over @ NYT from a Bannon fanboy is a good illustration of his appeal

Yes, the likes of Frank Bruni and his cohorts in the liberal media should be terrified by Steve Bannon. Here is why, in brief excerpts from an article that appeared in Crisis Magazine entitled “A Bannon Apologia” by Austin Ruse: Bannon is brilliant, salty, and driven. He is broadly and deeply read. Bannon is a visionary. And he had a vision on how to take over the conservative movement and supplant the GOP establishment. He wants to overturn the GOP establishment that seems incapable of doing anything they promise to do “We are a forum for the alt-right,” he said. I suspect that Bannon considered the alt-right to be nothing more than Americans on the Internet who were sick of globalization, illegal immigration, Mitch McConnell, and National Review. Bannon is a deeply thoughtful pugilist who does not care what you think. Be afraid . Be very afraid.
