"I have noticed an interesting "thread" in the way certain people are

gentlemen of the academic left take exception to the "dark people"
speaking their minds and standing on their feet.


They call them (us) "crude" and "offensive"; their (our) writings are
called at the very least "inappropriate". Sometimes they (we) are
threatened: "One more like that and I will unsub you." Sometimes they
(we) are just thrown off without a word."

No actual worker that I know (and I know many, beginning with my now
old, sick and retired mother) has ever argued the way Martin does.

I have, however, met many petty bourgeois radicalized youth, with a
Tolstoyian rather than Marxist thirst for fleas, who love to consider
themselves "members of the working class", and find it cute to throw
this status (usually acquired not due to dire necessity as is the
case with most wage earners, but following orders from a "Great Party
of Galactical Revolution, "In Andromeda TOO!" fraction") to the face
of some congregation of pundits and charlatans who must have never
held a screwdriver in their hands, not to say use it to actually
drive a screw in place.

Since I must be, in Martin's mind, a member of "the moderator's
coterie", I would like to announce that my political views have been
no boon for my academic carreer here in Argentina, while for many
holding Martin's views, an opposite story can be told.

And, honestly, I am fed up with this kind of righteous bullies. Maybe
my opinion is worthless, but I can't but have a saying on this.
Charlatans are too harmful for me to keep silent when I meet one.
