One thing I think about sometimes is the time a decade or so ago when the editor of the MIT Tech Review scolded me for being critical of Milo Yiannopolis because Milo “went to a good school” (some British shit that probably means a lot to them but I can’t even remember what it was) and therefore couldn’t actually be awful. That was one of those turning points where I realized I would never actually get elevated to a certain level of culture or visibility, and I was quite content with that.
