This guy is why the nation is doomed. His blog is interesting on occasion, but his crude, bobo snobbery is emblematic of what went wrong. Mommy and Daddy did well enough to send him to a decent private school which got him into a decent college. He is the product of what I call near-elite education. A generation ago, these schools took working class kids and gave them a first rate education. Today they are full of brats who think they are WASP gentry. They’re not and he’s not. He writes code and lives in an overpriced apartment like millions of other schmucks, but likes (needs) to pretend he is something other than run of the mill.

A handful of pompous jackasses is no big deal, but we have at least one full generation of them with the millennials. The late Gen-X group suffered from the same defect and the current crop is heading down the same path. A society can only survive so many entitled fops before it starts to lose its footing. Add to that a growing dependency class that the fops enjoy tormenting by supporting insane government policy and you have a recipe for disaster. America is headed for a cultural smashup that is going to be awful. The smug punks like the Twink of the Blogosphere are too stupid to leave the “prols” alone and the “proles” are too well armed to take it.
