Do we really need another political magazine?
Yes. Yes we do.
“Conservatism is progressivism driving the speed limit.”
To argue that conservatism is not what it was once is far too easy. Conservatism has become a bit of a joke in that they seek only to conserve what the left advocated last week.
There is more to a conservative, and for that matter, a classic liberal. But those ideals of the Founders and even the likes of Emerson or Thoreau are much missing.
A new magazine, the “Austro Libertarian”, seeks to find a way back from the un-and ill-informed masses to a place of stability. That place is called community.
The Summer 2019 issue of the Austro Libertarian magazine is on my computer and I’ve been reading it to almost gleeful delight. I’ve not seen such writing and ideas in a while.
From the introduction, this small passage: “If we are to properly understand the world around us, we must appreciate the path, intellectual and otherwise, that we have taken to get here.” Seems not the words of a libertarian. Yet, they are.
The Summer 2019 issue is about socialism. I’m reading an excellent piece about how it all started, long before Marx, and some of the circumstances about why it might have seemed the only way to go.
Check out the magazine. It is available in tactile and digital, issue by issue or a yearly subscription. The for realz magazine is proper sized and has that nice feel you want from a magazine, not the flimzy feel of say a People magazine.
