He's worse than Liberace!
The Neighborhood Is The Unit Of Change (He mimicks TLF's New Localism here. What a fucking idiot.)
The Rich White Civil War (See my other posts on Brooks on nationalism, Lincoln, globalization, etc.)
Brooks is really, at heart, surprise, a lower Manhattan localist.
But, however, surprise, he is really, at heart, an American nationalist.
(But, however, surprise, (secretly), he is still the same old Brooks globalist you have all, everywhere in the world, always known, and loved.)
Brooks is fun to follow, in a sick sort of way, because he is quite intentionally rather a swirling dervish of an editorial journalist.
Even trying to criticize him is rather like trying to shoot snipe, one of the most evasive of flying wild sport fowl.
Witness his current article, which I have tackled in several ways, not because I wanted to, but rather because the article changes ground, topic, and point of view, phrase by phrase, and sentence by sentence, as it goes along.
Brooks: Yes, I am A Snipe!
