...And so these narratives have become unconvincing other than to a narrow group of Village midwits. Both the multiethnic working class and an increasing number of highly successful people like those in the River are seeing through the bullshit.

So now the Village has a double failure. Its institutions serve the public increasingly poorly — but it’s also increasingly losing politically. If Trump’s victory against a Harris campaign that literally ran out of ideas wasn’t proof enough of that — I’ll have a long critique of the Harris campaign beginning later this week — people are also voting with their feet, fleeing blue states and cities. Corporations that embraced wokeness have now done a 180-degree turn in the other direction. Saturday Night Live is back to making fun of Democrats.

If the Village wants to continue down this path, it can go right ahead. Don’t point out Biden’s obvious hypocrisy or cognitive decline. Don’t investigate school closures or COVID origins. Continue using “misinformation” as an excuse to shut down speech. Have a great time at Bluesky. But the Village just lost an election to Donald Trump. And it’s losing the battle of ideas, the one thing that it’s supposed to win.
