J. D. Vance’s spiritual memoir is short on the spiritual and long on hypocrisy, oscillating between complaints about “the elites” and half-baked policy ideas that show little engagement with the Catholic social teaching he professes to admire.

    LOL, “the elites”. Holy shit, he is one of the elite. Do words even mean anything anymore?

    “JD” “Vance” is Thiel’s boy. He went to Yale. He worked in venture capital, FFS. He is estimated to be worth $12 million last year, and who knows how much he’s enriched himself in the year since.

    Okay, not a billionaire (that we know of) yet. But he’s also the fucking VP of the United States. He’s not going to want for anything the rest of his life.

    The right wing elitist fuckfaces like this need to get the fuck outta here with that “the elites” horseshit. They are the elite.
