Can Liberalism Stop Being So Darn ... Liberal?

Leftist critics of liberalism tend to take one of two positions: Either liberalism is a necessary but insufficient condition for achieving justice and fairness, or else liberalism is an active impediment to these aims, an “ideology,” in Marx’s sense, whose chimerical aspirations naturalize and perpetuate the status quo.

Liberalism’s Natural Disadvantage—and How to Overcome It

The earliest web pages are a far cry from today’s cyber wastelands.

What was the World Wide Web like at the start? Long before it became the place we think and work and talk, the air that we (and the bots) now breathe no matter how polluted it’s become? So much of the old web has rotted away that it can be hard to say; even the great Internet Archive only goes back to 1996.
