I'm doing a series now on conservative philosophers, but I have some criticisms of liberalism too. It's just that I don't know of a good place to publish anti-liberalism articles on Medium.

You approve of the snobbish, racist Burke quotation about how the lower-class French people didn't deserve to rule? And those class differences are supposed to be "natural"? As if the aristocrats don't tend to corrupt themselves in their own way? But they can only fail upward to preserve the illusion that the dominance hierarchy is meritocratic. That's just a pack of noble lies, at best, which philosophers are supposed to see through.
