I tend to give him a bit of a pass. I think he's like a lot of us - currently comfortable but not independently wealthy enough to say F-it. So he's trying to speak out without getting muzzled and losing his income.
He's done a lot of good work over a lot of years in his niche. I get the sense that he knows things are going to get worse but at least he's trying to advocate for a peaceful solution knowing historically that the inevitable violent revolution will be messy, costly and unpredictable.
I listened to an interview with him where he told a story about how he had written an article that was negative on some CCP trade practices or something. Very mundane stuff. He got a visit in his campus office at Stanford from a young Asisn lady who wanted to "talk" to him how he was wrong in his conclusions, blah, blah. Said she was dressed rather provocatively. Tried to give him a gift of a tea set which he declined. Then tried to get him to go to dinner under the pretense that they could discuss the matter further which he also declined. She left and he and his assistant remarked the strangeness of the whole thing.
Fast forward: the news about Swawell banging Fang Fang breaks. The assistant calls up VDH and says "OMG, that's HER!"
Anyone fired by National Review is a-okay in my book.
There are a lot of wise people who still believe it’s a bridge too far to believe government and the power behind those in government lie, cheat, steal and murder with mRNA shots…
