Andy Divine never shuts up! But when he does come up for air, to pronounce on ‘The Pandemic’ he is adept at playing the victim! Even America’s favorite discrete Neo-Liberal, Obama, tweeted about this!
‘I have direct, personal experience of living through a plague once before in my life.’
His readers shouldn’t forget his publication of a long excerpt of ‘The Bell Curve’, In The New Republic of Oct 31, 1994 , Halloween, how appropriate! His aggressive advocacy for The Iraq War, his continuing war against Students , of a certain political stripe etc.
He continues the benighted tradition pioneered by the late Allen Bloom, of the 1987 Best- Seller ‘The Closing of the American Mind: How Higher Education Has Failed Democracy and Impoverished the Souls of Today’s Students‘. A singular example of Neo-Conservative Political Theology’s desperation.
