I think this is the key point. Atwood is overly dismiss and has even written flat out anti-intellectual diatribes (see the "fireman" post).

- jamesbritt 18y agoInteresting. I was about to impulse-comment on a previous comment, but then say yours. Makes me wonder about the ways of being wrong, and who do people here think tend to be wrong in a good or valuable way? E.g., making conjectures that at least posit novel interaction of events and ideas, or are wrong due to lack of current knowledge and over-optimistic conjecture, not because of willful ignorance or bias. (I suppose that describes any good sci-fi writer; I'm thinking more of bloggers or essayists.)
