Chuck Darwin<p>J.D. Vance in Hot Water for Praising Book Calling Liberals “Unhumans”</p><p>Donald Trump’s running mate praised a book riddled with conspiracies and calling to “crush” non-Republicans.</p><p>♦️Unhumans: The Secret History of Communist Revolutions (and How to Crush Them) ♦️was written by the <a href="https://c.im/tags/Pizzagate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Pizzagate</span></a> guy, <br>Jack <a href="https://c.im/tags/Posobiec" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Posobiec</span></a>, <br>and ghostwriter Joshua <a href="https://c.im/tags/Lisec" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Lisec</span></a>, <br>with a foreword by the recently imprisoned MAGA movement architect Steve <a href="https://c.im/tags/Bannon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Bannon</span></a>.</p><p>The book supposedly tracks the opponents of conservatism throughout history and endorses a modern-day <br><a href="https://c.im/tags/McCarthyism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>McCarthyism</span></a> to root out the “radicals” from American institutions. </p><p>“On a base level, unhumans seek the death of the successful and the desecration of the beautiful,” Posobiec and Lisec claimed.</p><p>When comparing the Black Lives Matter movement to the French Revolution, they wrote: “There is no way to reason with those who manipulate the have-nots en masse to loot and to shoot. They simply hate those who are good-looking and successful.”</p><p><a href="https://c.im/tags/Vance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Vance</span></a> provided a glowing promotional blurb about the book, which is included on the website of right-wing publisher Skyhorse Publishing.</p><p>“In the past, communists marched in the streets waving red flags. <br>Today, they march through HR, college campuses, and courtrooms <br>to wage lawfare against good, honest people,” wrote Vance. </p><p>“In Unhumans, Jack Posobiec and Joshua Lisec reveal their plans and show us what to do to fight back.”</p><p>Of course, their far-right screed has dark implications. </p><p>After Trump was indicted in May on 34 criminal charges, Posobiec advocated for violent revolt against progressives. </p><p>“Take the path of the hunter, and with one singular voice, we are going to make them the prey,” he said.</p><p>Since accepting the nomination at the Republican National Convention last week, <br>Vance has been consistently embroiled in controversy over his past statements, <br>including his blatantly sexist comment about “childless cat ladies” <br>and humiliating rumors about having sex with a couch.</p><p>Beneath it all, Vance is still part of the intellectual<br> “new right” movement, <br>influenced by pronatalism, <br>techno-authoritarianism, <br>and conservative economic populism. </p><p>Evidently, his reading list also includes extremist, conspiratorial material<br>—if he even bothered to read it, before lending his name to it. </p><p>Either way, Vance gave Posobiec, and all of his dangerous and ridiculous ideas, a boost.<br><a href="https://newrepublic.com/post/184271/jd-vance-trouble-blurb-book-unhumans" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">newrepublic.com/post/184271/jd</span><span class="invisible">-vance-trouble-blurb-book-unhumans</span></a></p>
