Is it just me or has Roger Scruton been completely forgotten since his death?
>>24580586 (OP)It is a good thing that this pseud has been forgotten.
>>24580586 (OP)I think there's far worse thinkers than Scruton although his liberal conservatism is a bit meek for the current age.
Nothing more cucked than being a conservative. Literally at war with the laws of physics
>NO NO NO STOP REALITY CHANGING KEEP IT EXACTLY AS IT IS
>>24580649it's not about not changing, it's about staying on the same track you imbecile
Too much of a pussy for chuds, too chuddy for libs. This is the fate of all intellectuals who try to sit on two chairs at the same time while having only one ass to sit with.
>>24580586 (OP)his lasting contribution was to aesthetics
>>24580586 (OP)shilling for phillip morris did a lot of damage to his credibility
>>24580659that's unnatural, nothing stays static.
adapt or die.
I can't tell which is worse leftist grifting or right wing grifting.
>>24580687then why will you remain a retard your whole life?
>>24580586 (OP)Maybe he had nothing of value to say and isnโt worth preserving. Fitting for a conservative commentator.
I have actually been seeing more of him since his death, especially excerpts from "Beauty" are all over twitter and tiktok
>>24580687Change and political progress are two completely different things.
>>24580586 (OP)Well yeah, he never wrote anything important or interesting. He was a vehicle for posh tories to be told what they already think with a veneer of intellectualism.
>>24580586 (OP)Is there a single reason to read him over Arnold or Ruskin?
that dude looks like aids bill clinton
He comes up with my conversations with my sister at least once or twice every month.
He is not an exceptional thinker but he had good erudition and has some valuable things to say. Unfortunately, people like him go completely unappreciated either by "progressives" or "trads" in the current age. He is too moderate for radicals, and too serious for moderates.
Ive got soul of the world on my bookshelf, so i remember him with i see the spine. Havent read it though.
>>24581370newb. his very short intro to beauty is pretty slammin the rest of his stuff was generic chuddy for me tho.
