It is axiomatic that individuals ahead of their time are often branded in a derogatory fashion. When the truth ultimately arrives in full force, then, and only then, will those sages who spoke the truth be accorded the respect they deserve. I only hope its not too late for the US when that happens, as it surely will. It took decades to debunk communism for what it was, it may once again take that long for the US to discern the true nature and danger of this most recent -ism. Keep it up Mr. Pipes, there are many of us who applaud your efforts and respect your courage to speak the truth.
