I talk to Charles about finding ourselves at a very generative intersection of political ideas, in what feels to be a pivotal moment & in great company - post-liberalism is here and it is up to us to feel out the contours of the future, to at least not let it surprise us, and at best have a part in creating it.
We speak about:
The three strands of post-liberal thought - what does the territory look like?
Gatekeeping on our side: "no friends to the right"
The Enlightenment and its discontents
"The regime is extremely fragile"
Neoreaction and his take on Curtis Yarvin
What does the new online right look like and why is it so generative?
Seeing tech as a tool, not a savior and space, the final frontier
Why you should read "The Demon in Democracy" by Legutko
Charles' recommended subversives are Carl Schmitt and Ernst Junger.
Charles is a successful entrepreneur, an ex-lawyer, and the maximum leader of the Worthy House, a blog and podcast where he reviews a variety of books from a right-wing, post-liberal perspective.
