“Real” to whom? To the Marxist catechist? Or to actual people living in the world? What’s the relation between those two things?
“Real,” as in objective, as in affecting one’s daily existence. And in that respect it matters tremendously to those actual people living in the real world, which “Marxists” and “catechists” are just as much a part of as anyone else. If red-baiters and liberals need to be dragged kicking and screaming into this reality, so be it.
I figured you’d say something like that. But how many actual Americans would accept your little lecture - or take being dragged kicking & screaming without aiming some of those kicks at sensitive spots on your person? Don’t you think that that matters even a little itty bit?
