Bulwark Review of Marohn's Book?

I'm in @BulwarkOnline with a review of @clmarohn @StrongTowns "Confessions of a Recovering Engineer." Incredible, idiosyncratic, insightful book. But please start with my review: https://t.co/3scfCkjHZj

Charles Marohn, Anti-Boomer

I wrote this column about generational change over 9 years ago. I took a lot of heat for it at the time, but IMO it aged well. The answer to my questions is "no," baby boomers were never going to give up the systems and approaches they created, no matter.https://t.co/DEbVBAhl9y

Charles Marohn on Saving Elephants

I did an interview with the Saving Elephants podcast and it was really fun -- kind of outside of the standard Strong Towns discussion. The podcast is about "conversations about conservative values and ideas with a mercifully modern twist." https://t.co/kjvw8hJZEZ

If you want to hear two conservatives talk about cities, evolution, humility, and caring for your neighbor -- all very conservative themes, FWIW -- you might want to give this episode a listen. https://t.co/BTAbxKYHRN

One Opponent of MMT

Read this a few times and let it sink in.

One of the most insidious base assumptions of MMT is that, instead of the government serving the people, we serve the government.

It's the worst form of nationalism. https://t.co/NnDcumRQ1Z

Charles Marohn on Rebuilding Rural Communities

"In our small towns and rural areas, our goal must be to build a culture of health, one where everyone has a fair and just opportunity to live a good life in a prosperous place. That is exactly what it means to live in a Strong Town." — @clmarohn https://t.co/07ahGsJgj6

Are rural "communities" more likely to have a sense of solidarity and not suffer from significant divisions in the population? Maybe. But any such divisions are not addressed in this. Civic nationalism still lives in the imaginations of some.

Charles Marohn Reviews Living in the Long Emergency

I thought I had linked to this review when it was published over at Strong Towns, but apparently I didn't. The review was in the Sept/Oct issue of AmConMag and was made available on the AmConMag website today:

NEW, @clmarohn reviews James Howard Kunstler: The U.S. never really recovered from 2008. In fact, we're in the middle of a much bigger crisis than most people have realized. https://t.co/mOdNKUTSjX

Here is Kunstler with Marohn on the Strong Towns podcast.
