Watch Dan Bongino every Saturday Night at 10:00 pm, on FOX give his UNFILTERED opinion, based in truth, to the world.

“History instills a sense of citizenship, and reminds you of questions to ask, especially about evidence,” Willis told me. In a follow-up e-mail after our conversation, Mikhail wrote, “A study of the past shows us that the only way to understand the present is to embrace the messiness of politics, culture, and economics. There are never easy answers to pressing questions about the world and public life.”

A part of the Article by Eric Alterman i liked in the New Yorker. I understand that Mr Alterman has a big bag of political accusations but his work and dedication in history is important and offers food for thinking, mostly for the Americans and their way of life and thinking. I hope that others will enjoy the article the same as me, for a brief overview in modern fashion media and main stream speak up.

NB: I personally haven't payed any attention to his point of view for
Trump but to the rest of the Article which i find more important

F. Scott Fitzgerald famously called the Roaring Twenties – which happened on the heels of the 1918 flu pandemic – “the most expensive orgy in history.”

Now, as more and more Americans are vaccinated, some are saying all the sexual energy pent up over the past year will be unleashed, with Yale sociologist Nicholas Christakis predicting a summer marked by a surge in “sexual licentiousness.”
...
Women, however, might face backlash for exploring their post-vaccination sexuality. In a new study, we found that women – but not men – continue to be perceived negatively for having casual sex.

This stereotype persists even as casual sex has become increasingly normalized and gender equality has risen in the U.S. and much of the Western world.

Specifically, both men and women assume that a woman who has casual sex must have low self-esteem.

But that perception isn’t based in reality. So what might be driving this unfounded stereotype?
A belief held across religious and political divides

Although the idea that women’s sexual behavior is linked to their self-esteem is a common trope in film, television and even some relationship advice sites, we documented just how entrenched this stereotype is across six experiments published in Psychological Science.

In one experiment, we asked Americans to estimate the correlation between people’s sexual behavior and their self-esteem. We described those people as being a man, woman or simply as “a person,” without providing any information about their gender. We then described that man, woman or person as having a lot of casual sex, portrayed them as being a serial monogamist or provided no information about their sexual behavior.

We found that Americans tended to associate monogamy with high self-esteem, especially for women. More striking, they associated casual sex with low self-esteem – but only for women.

This belief was surprisingly widespread, and across our studies we found that both men and women hold it.

We wondered: Was this stereotype the product of sexist beliefs? Could it be due to participants’ political ideology or their religion?

But time and again, we saw that this stereotype transcended a number of markers, including the extent to which someone held sexist beliefs, their political views and their religiosity.

If you write a lot about the evils of American fascism like I do, you tend to get plenty of angry Trump fans in your inbox. Almost as if there was a connection or something. One of the things that comes up a lot is communism for some reason. Here’s a lovely local gentleman who threatened to beat me up and rape me after I reported on the band Horna, who has unsettling Nazi affiliations, playing at White Swan. He’s not racist; he’s just very opposed to communism.

If you’re like most Americans, you don’t even know any communists, let alone vote for them. It’s true that as late-stage capitalism has us all employed but broke, more and more people are open to the ideas of Karl Marx. As Lindsey Weedston shows in an excellent article for The Establishment , communists are still outnumbered by the Ku Klux Klan, itself just the tip of the white fascism iceberg in the country. They don’t win elections, they aren’t connected to acts of terrorism, and they just in general don’t matter much.

But you wouldn’t know it from Trump World......
