Ramanan — Jason Hickel — A Letter To Steven Pinker (And Bill Gates For That Matter) About Global Poverty
A funny thing for those who didn't bother following links. Hickel is actually replying to the front man of the front man of Bill Gates. Those guys were clutching their pearls because Hickel dared to criticise Big Bill on his way to Davos.
You have to give this to the liberal/leftish petty bourgeois intelligentsia: boy, those guys know which side their bread was buttered on.
Any similarity to Waylon Smithers is merely coincidental... right? :-)
Thanks. The Jason Hickel blog looks like a keeper.
