        @dandrezner @mattyglesias I think he's incredibly smart but become sort of redundant, which is an anti-intellectual act

        @DylanByers @dandrezner @mattyglesias Redudant? And that dismissiveness is why much of what MHP speaks needs to be repeated.#PostRacialNot

        .@DylanByers Of course. Because people of color couldn't possibly be on your list of intellectuals. Way to prove our point here.

        Both Bernard Lewis & Krugman are Princeton faculty (as was Perry) yet you don't dismiss them for their non academic work. @DylanByers
