that I am an "elitist".."

For those who asked what I meant by posts being anti-education, this is a good example. Yes, in fact, people who have studied subjects for years in school and then gathered more experiencial knowledge applying what they learned in the world, probably do, in fact, know more about those subjects. Why that makes one elitist or a snob (as someone said), I don't understand. It does makes you more knowledgable. You can decide to believe or not believe the facts; thats up to you; but stop attacking the messenger!
You don't need to read the book. The facts are that he deliberately abused animals for money and personal pleasure. The emotions are that he is a hero and superstar. Myself - I go with the facts.
