So it's come to this-- in order to be more informed about the thinking of people I don't agree with, I am now reading the following:
National Review (they offer a free year's digital subscription)
Henry Ford's "The International Jew-- the World's Foremost Problem"
(Thanks to George Greene for recommending this. A quick scan of the contents page reveals this fascinating chapter title-- "Jewish Jazz Becomes Our National Music")
Celine's "Trifles for a Massacre"
(This one's an especially weird experience for me because Celine is one of my favorite writers despite his indefensible antisemitism)
I suppose I'll be rereading Will Eisner's book about the Protocols, and I think I have another book by him about jew hatred in America.
And I'll need numerous palate cleansers. My various collections of Milt Gross seem like a good choice, and I'll also need to dip into the intriguing recent book about Krazy Kat auteur George Herriman that suggests Herriman was actually black, passing for white.
Karl Straub, according to Wikipedia, is a windbag, Telecaster picker, and music archivist who's piled up a quarter of a million tracks. He blogs about politics, music, and idiocy (his own and that of others), using thumb-typed prose to supplement the audible blather & music on his Hot Plate! show. His mission- to entertain while engaging your brain. If you're understandably avoiding politics, why, you're in luck! The show only has a teeny tiny bit. (For audio, use phone web view)
