FWIW, I did speed read the whole thing. It was welcome in that it both had a substantive message and dispensed with the eye rolling transgressions into 'the having of sex' that these have tended to go down. Tradcaths will not be happy.
I think populism now is alignment to 'elitist' presuppositions, rather than a mass movement driven from below. Though that does still happen of course (BLM etc). So I tend to agree with the statement. I don't think we are seeing genuine populism, just merely a mass self sorting in action. That is the populism, but its not based on a 'whats best for all of us', just 'whats best for my side.'
