Steve Bannon is by all accounts well read and eclectic, but he’s the type of intellectual who just keeps on stuffing contradictory and often extremist ideas into his head…without ever trying or learning to integrate the particles of truth while deleting the particles (or gobs) of untruths that attend almost all modern intellectualism. Thus his ideology and MO is simply flux, force, power grab and repeat without cleaning or rinsing.

Bannon is unfortunately the mind behind the non-mind of Trump and the populist “wisdom” of Trumpism. He and the whole populist, nationalist movement need to go back to square one and integrate the truths and only the truths in apparently opposing perspectives because that is the very process of ACTUAL Wisdom.
