The chutzpah here is breathtaking. What have you done for years except file dyspeptic posts to listservs? You make righteous, revolutionary statements of this sort without any effects on the world or consequences on your reputation. They must make you feel good, like you're the commissar of the cornfields or something, but they don't amount to a hill of beans. If that isn't a comfortable set of opinions, I don't know what is.
Sometimes you & your partner in pseudohypermilitancy make me wish I'd sold myself to Goldman Sachs when I was young enough to fetch a decent price.
