i keep being reminded of harrison bergeron..the vonnegut book..(do you have your visor on?)
you know, the funny line about ’anyone of average or lower intelligence can be president’
i think vonnegut was actually a bit gentle when it came down to it. i see things in a much
darker light.
he said the elite were dumbing people down for ultimately benign reasons. perhaps he didn’t
predict the malevolence that now seems so transparent today among our elite.
and this is a guy who was in dresden when it was turned into a bonfire.
