aj, how can you stand living in this world? ;-) My thoughts: 1) The world is full of people like you described. 2) Some of these people are "full-time propagators" of their own brand of BS. 3) Usually BS is said to advance the cause of a priveledged class, not in opposition to it. 4) Most of us have been at least a "part-time propagator" of our own brand of BS at some point in our lives ;-) 5) The priveledged class always consists of "other people", not oneself ;-) I enjoy fictional stories about people who always see things through their own preconceived notions. The movie "Being There" and the novel "A Confederacy of Dunces" are 2 of my favorite illustrations of this.
