This is edition 2025/75 of the Ten@10 newsletter.
Welcome back. It's 2025 and 20 years since I started writing about politics and anything else that took my fancy. Thank to my VIP members for making this site what it is today. In July we will be having a 20th birthday celebration. Stay tuned for more announcements.
This is the Ten@10, where I collate and summarise ten news items you generally won't see in the mainstream media.
Enjoy!
1. The Self-Important Self
Liam Hehir
- 📚 James Lindsay is critiqued for repackaging existing political concepts with apocalyptic language rather than offering original insights.
- 🧠 Lindsay lacks formal training in political philosophy or history, with a background in mathematics.
- 🌍 His commentary often simplifies complex ideologies into binary extremes, ignoring nuanced historical and philosophical contexts.
- 🔍 Lindsay's approach contrasts sharply with established political theorists who deeply engage with tradition and discipline.
- ⚠️ Conservatives are cautioned against embracing Lindsay's critiques uncritically, as his perspective may not align with conservative stewardship values.
