What’s going on inside the American right when open antisemitism, Holocaust revisionism, and “Groyper” culture are suddenly on center stage?In this episode, I sit down with Kimo Gandall — former chair of the California College Republicans and a Harvard Law–trained attorney active in GOP politics — to unpack the Nick Fuentes / Tucker Carlson moment, the Heritage Foundation backlash, and why some Republican leaders (like JD Vance and Trump) seem so reluctant to clearly draw red lines.We dig into the deeper questions underneath the headlines: economic precarity for young men, the rise of incel and “America First” subcultures, the limits of classical conservatism, and whether liberal pluralism still offers Jews (and everyone else) the safest framework for living with deep differences.In this conversation, we discuss:Why Nick Fuentes and the Groypers are resonating with young right-wing men online and on campusThe Tucker Carlson–Fuentes interview and the Heritage Foundation controversyJD Vance, Trump, and why GOP elites are so hesitant to forcefully condemn explicit antisemitismHow “everyone is Hitler” rhetoric on the left helped normalize Nazi talk on the rightIncels, masculinity, and the economic + social anxieties of Gen Z menLiberalism vs. particularism: can strong religious identities and pluralism coexist?What Jews should (and shouldn’t) learn from rising antisemitism on the rightWhy censorship backfires, and what a healthier “marketplace of ideas” might look likeAbout my guest:Kimo Gandall is the former chairman of the California College Republicans, a recent graduate of Harvard Law School, and an attorney based in Texas who works closely with college Republican organizations and GOP campaigns.To read the article we referenced: https://www.chronicle.com/article/the-far-rights-college-crusade🔔 Enjoyed the episode?
