    This assumes that culture and academia work hand in hand, which is just in line with many right-wing conspiracies and plain wrong.

    There are no natives anymore. For some time, really. Honestly I don’t even think there ever were.

    The last time the world had an intelligentsia of this magnitude, the Tsarist State fell.

    I just wanted to add: there’s no single piece of machinery that can void the human experience. A large collection of machinery can only delay the inevitable. Please have fun with y…
