Earlier quoted context omitted.

those right wing politicians and media personalities mentioned are Pat Buchanan, Andrew Breitbart, Jordan Peterson, all of whom have been tied to anti-semitism. I think people just arent as blatant now. Reminds me of the Lee Atwater quote. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lee_Atwater#%22Southern_strate...

Peterson is not an anti-semite.

But he is "linked to" the far right, so he might as well be.

The author (me, hi) created a PDF you can read here. https://www.dropbox.com/s/p9up8atjecn30me/Moira%20Weigel%20%...

Thank you for this article! It's a great read.

I don't regularly check Hacker News, so saw it through the "HN Tooter" account on Mastodon which forwards links to HN front page articles. Then I was curious to see what the HN reaction was and went to scroll from the front page and on the "next page" links... and I couldn't find it anywhere! (even scrolling past the release date of the article)

I had to use the search feature and sort by date, then it showed up. Was this post removed from the front page archives or am I missing something?

No.
