These twits depend on a captive audience to spew their propaganda. No one would listen to them otherwise. I agree that it was totally inappropriate for Doctorow to make such a negative speech at a college graduation. The word "buzzkill" comes to mind.
Exactly! That is why I am taking preemptive action, because if I hear something like that at my graduation from Hofstra Law next year, I will literally walk up to the stage and scream at the speaker!
