Not the epitome of public intellectuals

Nor philosopher kings, but they are free to have opinions just like anyone else.
Somehow I just don't get excited about this particular aspect of our culture wars. And it's worth noting that only in fascist regimes are there no culture wars. Back in the 1970s I worked in a business owned by a committed feminist. And many of its distaff employees were feminists. They scolded me whenever I used the word 'girlfriend' when referring to my girlfriend. But happily the lectures always went innuendo and out the other. I'm old now and still have a girlfriend. And never went to a reeducation camp or gulag.
