You remind me to Pirsig's criticism of intellectuals: "Thus, throughout this
century we have seen over and over again that intellectuals weren't blaming crime
on man's biological nature, but on the social patterns that had repressed this
biological nature. At every opportunity, it seems, they derided, denounced,
weakened and undercut these Victorian social patterns of repression in the belief
that this would be the cure of man's criminal tendencies." (Lila, 22)
