Part of what makes these people so hilarious is their lack of what used to be called a “well-rounded liberal education.”

Had they been exposed to Kipling’s “The White Man’s Burden,” they would realize how dangerously close they are to repeating his thesis.

Kipling was fine as an empirical observation. That’s how things shook out in his age.

I sure hope nobody regards it as a moral imperative.
