Anyone who uses a hammer to instill a worldview of love, justice, and freedom, is doing it wrong.
Of course, if the desired end is actually something else, then a hammer makes total sense.
Understood. It is interesting how talents are distributed. Unevenly within society. And unevenly within individuals. I happen to think that PP&M were a pretty good singing act. But then as now (!) their understanding of American values lacks any visible smarts. I think barbara Streisand and a few other actors have great stage talent but zero understanding of much else. On stage, they sound and act well. Off stage and off script, They look and sound like idiots ( or outright enemies ? ). Winners yes in the one arena, miserable losers - not even mediocre or just average / but totally untalented in the other. Strange. But interesting imho.
