Thank you David Brooks !

Freedom means many things... freedom from Giving    freedom from Getting

Thank you.

David Brooks is my favourite Epstein client list member. Loved his article about Epstein is hoax.

I’m a fan of David Brooks, but he claims to be a conservative and embraces epistemic modesty. So how does he embrace sweeping, all inclusive, intellectual theories like those of Huntington and Jared Diamond?

Also, I sharply disagree with his denigration of reason and the enlightenment. It was entirely needed to sweep away the enormous injustice and corruption of the Middle Ages ruled by the church.

a wise man with the gift of eloquence.  Love him.

Wonderful to listen to Brooks but the host can't seem to get out of his own way.

Mr. Brooks, the USA has divorced itself from culture through the actions of the former party called Republicans and their corrupt, morally bankrupt administration. This is not a minor incursion but a wholesale collapse. Your country is in crisis and the facade of the stock market is a house of cards that could totally collapse the financial world and therefore the USD. The decent people of the USA are still in a state of shock at the speed of this and part of the population are still in the "burn it all down" mode. I fear that fiddler is playing while the USA is burning. If there are any "History Books" after the embers die, the age of humans will be on the edge of their time on the blue marble in space. Tinkering around the edges isn't an option.

david brooks is a trump supporter and a republican party member!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just realized..... I cannot stand Brooks... Like so many conservatives, he pretends that Trump is an aberration.... Trump is a descendent of Reagan/Bush, etc ... He is so full of clichés... You can't use your personal life as a pattern for a country.

Hey David Brooks---
Far as I am concerned, YOU are just as responsible for what is happening in America now, as Trump is.
I remember when Bush the First was running for president.  
You got all choked up, gushing and trilling about Compassionate Conservatism and A Million Points of Light.
You didn't just drink the Kool-Ade----you Promoted it with your:
"Gosh golly, I'm a kindly grandfatherly college professor who is smarter than you, but I'm not going to say it..."  baloney.
Making people feel comfortable, warm and fuzzy while putting them on the path to Fascism.

Don't pretend that the Bush's were really that different from Trump---I remember the Heritage Foundation's beginnings, the secret wars, the lies for more wars and seeding our urban areas with crack cocaine, the marginalizing of oppressed people in this nation, the trashing of our economy...need I go on?
You need to publicly apologize to the American people, and walk away from any type of conservationism.
For Shame!
