I don't really see the "anti-liberal" slant (and why would being anti-liberal be bad necessarily btw?) This mag to me seems pretty lib since they shared an attitude with Capt Billy's that seemed to rail against the religious, tee-totaling crowd that brought in prohibition. (look at some of the covers, esp from the 1922 run) as for the misogyny & racism, yeah that sure is there, but then confirmed lefty Jack London was also misogynistic & racist. Definitely not excusing it but it seems from my reading of older material that almost everyone of every political leaning back then was misogynistic & racist. It was an omnipresence in the cultural landscape that we have yet to fully overcome.
