nate is making the mistake of thinking the atlantic and antlanticism were created as an intellectual project rather than a white supremacist one.

My basic criticism is that while it presents itself as a magazine of ideas—which makes readers feel as if they are engaging intelligently with important issues—it in fact covers those issues in such a superficial and slipshod way that people are liable to be left with a worse understanding of the issue than when they went in, though they may be wrongly convinced that they have learned something.

his criticism is that he really wants it to be a magazine of ideas instead of a propaganda mill for liberal american racism, but the purpose of a system if what it does, nate.
