amazing. I've read her when I was young, good times to read again. Re-reading again , after decades, usually results in reading "new" books... I only do not agree with the conclusions: sure, the leftist are into "utopian" thinking, while MAGA, is what she calls "paleogenic". Be great "like we used to be in the glorious times".

The March Toward Totalitarianism: Hannah Arendt In The 21st Century
The conclusion is fine...Arendt transcends the left/right paradigm. There is Totalitarianism/Liberty. The "left" in America is not utopian, it is dystopian based on nihilism. It's just a bunch of spoiled children that don't understand what they're against (biting the hand that feeds them). MAGA is just an attempt to repair the damage done by the nihilists and has nothing to do with paleogenesis...there is no appeal to a "mythical America."

I'm used to stick on facts. The fact the left is dystopian is your opinion, not a fact. Nihilism cannot match with idealism, so it cannot match , neither utopia or dystopia. MAGA has a strong appeal with the mythical america, just because, the great america is just how some people had seen america in a given period. In iran nobody would say america was "great"; they would use "evil". Just for my information: how much philosophy you've studied at school?
