you have to 'howl with the wolves' or you don't survive.

That's true, because now you are bucking so many vested interests when you propose something oppostie the entrenched establishment. Einstein would never had made it in the current environment.

That's true, because now you are bucking so many vested interests when you propose something opposite the entrenched establishment. Einstein would never had made it in the current environment.

Almost, but take the exactly opposite point of view: Einstein DID face incredible "scientific" opposition from the German National Socialist university environment and the socialist professors who opposed his theories BECAUSE he was a Jew, and the German political establishment refused to acknowledge that a Jew could advance science.

However, Einstein classically pointed out that while many thousand could write about him decrying his theories, and many thousand could hate him and prevent him from being published, but it would only take ONE to prove him wrong!
