- brookst 4y agoYou weren’t trying to imply that intellectuals are likely to cause violence against themselves by continuing to say the wrong things to the wrong people? Because it sure looked like that’s what you were implying.

- anigbrowl 4y agoI don't think the top comments was especially insightful, but let's not pretend that in some cases 'text on website' consists of exhortations to and instructions for violence. There is a non-negligible number of people who fantasize on the regular about widespread hangings of people they believe to be traitors. You can go on Twitter right now and find plenty of people tweeting about their desire to 'hang Fauci' just in the last week.
