Read this Kristof column, and you'll understand why I'm studing a certain authoritarian movement that begins with the letter "f." Speaking of, I'll have an update this weekend. No, I haven't started writing yet, but I do know which direction I'm going to take it down. Next week I'll go searching for an advisor to bounce my ideas off of and so on.


UPDATE: On further reflection, I think I'm being a tad shrill. It was early, and I hadn't had my coffee.
