I don’t mean to be anti-intellectual.
But something about The Crimson’s house style puts me off even when I agree with what they’re saying:
The protests’ muddled message diluted their efficacy and enhanced the perception that the movement was more a tantrum thrown by a disgruntled conservative base than a national uprising against federal excess. The confusion was further exacerbated by the ubiquity of hyperbole and innuendo.
It’s like they just go through thesaurus.com and pick the longest possible Latinate or Greek choice for each word. Yeeziz.
I guess this blog is soon to be just one long continuous rant against The Crimson. So be it.
