“The philosopher Alasdair MacIntyre died last week at the age of 96. To my surprise and delight, among those who (intellectually-speaking) mourned his passing was John Ganz, author of the wonderful When The Clock Broke: Con Men, Conspiracists, and How America Cracked Up in the Early 1990s and of the Substack Unpopular Front. Ganz says, ‘When I told a philosophy major friend how much I admired MacIntyre, he replied, ‘Well, that makes sense since you are both cranky Aristotelians,’ which I took as a great compliment.’ I would have done similarly, and I feel somewhat similarly to Ganz about MacIntyre.” (05/27/25)
