Good to know.
Socialists are generally anti-intellectuals.
It was Nazi University students that burned books.
It was Russian Marxists that banned unsanctioned literature, writing, and arts.
In fact, in the US where the religious "nuts" reigned, we have had unprecidented intellectual and political freedoms.
So Azimov was mostly right: people like Fuzz are the problem.
