amazing that there is any accolade whatsoever for this
institutionalised censorship! give us less of what you think
we might read! how nice to be sheltered from unwanted
intrusion into your comfy institutionally-sponsored lives!

You cannot politically defy the institutions when all you really wanted was to be
clasped to their bosoms and hope in time to be cherished under the very framework of
oppressive values you are thinking of overcoming. That would be co-optation,
revolution only in the sense of a circulation of elites rather than the extirpation of
the very impulses of elitism. Society is like a stew; if you don't stir things up
every once in a while then a layer of scum floats to the top.
