The Unsettled Memory of Nazism and Communism

According to Douglas Murray, the rise of identity politics and wokism in the West shows that Europe has forgotten about what ‘communism’ means – so those who had lived under oppressive totalitarian regimes should gently remind the West of the dangers of communist sentiments.

Spaces of Conservation

Nostalgia, so characteristic of conservatives, can
