It's just another asshole with an inflated sense of self-enlightenment, and entitlement, declaring himself a brahmin who ought to have editorial powers over the public square. The article offered no insight. I should have gone with "I want my 3 minutes back" rather than treat it seriously.
You are more interesting when you're not a moron. (And thank you for confirming that you hadn't read it when you first responded, like Bennet not having read Cotton's op-ed when the NYT was sanctimoniously telling people how important it is to be exposed to other views.)
