You would think people who do thinking for a living would find the events in the U.K. and the U.S. fascinating and historically compelling, if for no other reason than that neither outcome was expected by the public intellectuals themselves.
So when the public intellectuals convince the public to vote according to their worldview, this popular election is called "Democracy in action." When the public votes against the public intellectuals, this signifies that the public put the interests of the population ahead of the "Thinkers" and must therefore be grounded in the old primordial goo of tribalism and hatred that afflicts the public, generally, but from which the public intellectuals can elevate us, should we simply heed their instructions.
Being confronted with ideas that conflict with their own, public intellectuals see no choice but to silence the public.
If personal freedom should suffer as a result, then the public should have considered this repercussion before saying what they believe out loud.
Freedom of conscience, if kept securely in the private thoughts of the public, is allowed, but exercising freedom of conscience is dangerous to the public intellectuals and is therefore forbidden.
An Iron Curtain is once again descending on free peoples of the world, and they, themselves, are the ones pulling and yanking the ropes, hoping to quiet the rumblings of public dissatisfaction with the State or hunger for personal freedom before the public gains enough awareness of their predicament or strength to do something about it.
The deepest cut is that most of the rebellious intellectuals under the Iron Curtain fought for freedom, while most of our public intellectuals fight against it.
