Stetson’s Reviews > Furious Minds: The Making of the MAGA New Right > Status Update

First half much stronger than the latter half of the book. The 'Hard Right" substructural claims are amazingly thin. Misses the entire tech and scientific elements of New Right intellectual streams. The work also whiffs on covering ideas from Girard and Burnham.

The critique of Mansfield-Anton's ideas as misogynistic is disappointing. It rests on the tired conflation of criticizing feminism as criticizing women. Field's argument is premised on the same identitarian representationalism of 'wokeness'...

Heavy early focus on Straussianism.
