“The basic American situation in which the right wing wants cultural victories and gets nothing but political ones; while the left wing wants political victories and gets only cultural ones. … The left manages to get sombreros banned from college parties while every federal court in the country is assigned a far-right-wing activist judge.”I'm trying to think this through - what it means, first, and then whether it's accurate. I haven't read the book so I'm not sure of the total context. But this jumps out at me.
I think I'll just leave it at that today and let readers spend what time they would haven take to read a longer post just think about what that might mean, maybe share a comment, or go out and enjoy the beginnings of summer.
