Earlier! Spinal Tap's "Tonight I'm Gonna Rock You" lampoons 70's songs on the subject.

Thank you for beating me to the punch on this one.

Depending on how you tilt your head, that's either my 2nd initial category, or my 3rd, or a combination of both.

Good one. Also I forgot:

- Left class, because that-guy-can-go-to-hell.

That's the set of folks in my second bullet item. Remember we not only get Summers out of Harvard, but we also get folks like should-be-chief-justice KBJ too.

I see a minimum of four categories:

- Think they're lucky to be at Harvard, can't rock boat.
- Taking notes for how not to get caught and deliver sorry-I-got-caught speech.
- Goal-driven-hyperfocus leaves no room to pay attention.
- Surreptitiously filming for future bashing.

If you don't welcome in outsiders, you're fucked. If you can't make space for wannabe parents to fall in love and form households, you're fucked. If you can't help shoulder the burdens of raising a family and rearing kids into fully functioning adults, you're fucked.

Exhibit A for sarcasm, the post above it:

There is no batshit far-right idea that the NYT's "reasonable" conservatives will not launder into polite discourse.

Ummm... wasn't he being sarcastic?

Finished @ztameez.bsky.social 's Charles Sumner biography.

Quite good, and it shows all the complexities in an admired figure, i.e. not a hagiography.

The Klan has a historical (and still?) presence in Howell, MI.

Thank you (and Burke) for pointing this out! The "...many (enemies) of which are not government as such," is the BIG point, cutting both ways.

I suspect one could substitute other causes/beliefs for "abundance" in that sentence it's equally true. I can think of 2-3 off the top of my head.
