In a media landscape obsessed with noise, one man quietly connected the dots. Victor Davis Hanson, the historian and political thinker, saw the storm before anyone else did.
While pundits debated headlines, Hanson studied the undercurrents. He looked at the patterns, not the panic—and what he found was chilling.
The world was distracted by tweets, trends, and temporary outrage. But Hanson saw a long game—one that began decades ago and is only now showing its full force.
He warned that American institutions were fraying—not from outside, but from within. Universities, he argued, no longer taught critical thinking, but ideological conformity.
While most focused on elections, Hanson examined erosion—of culture, of history, of trust. He didn’t shout on talk shows. He wrote, lectured, and let facts speak louder than fear.
