From my new column in Taki’s Magazine:

Red Scare
Steve Sailer

July 24, 2024

I considered writing about presidential politics, but the way things are going lately, by the time you read this on Wednesday, we may well be on to a whole new storyline I can’t anticipate.

So, I’m going to go off topic and reflect on a new paper by two economists about an early example of Cancel Culture, the 1947–1957 Red Scare in the movie industry, “McCarthyism, Media, and Political Repression: Evidence from Hollywood” by Hui Ren and Tan Tanyi Wang. It’s reflective of the rise of intellectual imperialism among economists.

Read the whole thing there.
