Infantilizing the Audience

“Public commentators assumed the air of kindergarten teachers who had to protect their children from thinking certain impermissible and intolerant thoughts.”
— David Brooks in today’s New York Times

What else is new?

I prefer the impermissible
and intolerant Stan Lee
(author of novels, not comic books):

Dunn’s Conundrum is reportedly
the basis of a screenplay titled,
after the novel’s main character,
“The Garbageman.”
