Of all the BritCons British
conservative intellectuals, I have always found Naill Ferguson to be the weakest.
He's always comes across as a faux intellectual,pretentious, pompous, as someone trying to hard to sound like an intellectual, thinks too much of himself, knows little but advertises as if he knows more.
He says things not because he believes those things but actually tries to project his views as if someday it might come true, it's more wishful thinking than analysis.
He's mainly one of those British conservatives who thinks that the best way for British should approach it's relationship with USA is getting down on it's knees and sucking up to America as hard as they can "*Then America will be nice to you*" because they are satisfied with your work.
That's never going to happen America is the most selfish, narcissist country in the world.
It's unusual to me how self centred Americans can be.
As Christopher Hitchens said once some people in America think that they are not selfish enough.
America is a teenager among countries.
For most Right wing Americans the world began in 1776, for the Left the world began in 1619 and they learnt mostly from the British Empire.
The best British intellectuals have been Christopher Hitchens, Douglas Murray and Peter Hitchens.
Niall Ferguson can be interesting sometimes but mostly he is disappointing. You can always count on him to give his opinion from a biased perspective and be slightly dishonest and slant his opinion to suit a narrative.(The same can be said about Fiona Hill)
But he's just popular because he's Ayan hirsi Ali' husband than nothing else.
