I asked ChatGpt to read every blog post I have written over the last decade and write a biting critique of me first from the perspective of the left, then from the perspective of the nationalist right.
Here is what it said:
2
1. First, from the left: "A man who has mistaken nostalgia for insight"
3
"[He pretends] as if working class solidarity can be rebuilt by reading Alexis de Tocqueville"
4
"When it comes to China he sees ideological struggle everywhere ....but refuses to accept that it also shapes domestic politics in ways that may be uncomfortable for his worldview."
5
2. "He diagnoses collapse but shrinks from the radical action required to stop it."
6
"Greer advocates something has been lost but he does not advocate for its replacement."
7
"He understands that states rise and fall on the strength of their people’s will, yet he treats nationalism as something to be observed rather than something to be harnessed."
8
(If it was not clear, everything after "2" was a critique for the right").
9
For what it is worth, it did not do this successfully on the first try. Among other things it had this critique of my work earlier on

When I asked it to re-read certain essays of mine it then offered this mea culpa:
