Part 2 of my convo with Nathan Evans Fox, going deeper into the psychological and theological architecture of what JD Vance is actually doing in his new memoir, and what it costs him and everyone else to do it.
Nathan reads Communion as a work of apologetics built on the logic of accumulation: prestige, then money, then virtue, with each step more abstract and less obviously empty than the last. Nothing is enough for this guy.
He traces Vance's Catholicism to a pragmatic need to authorize whiteness and hierarchy. We discuss the SSPX schism, the conformist-older-brother archetype in abusive family systems, why buying into whiteness at the expense of solidarity destroys your capacity to grieve, and what imperial theology does when it cannot satisfy itself.
