Best description I've seen of the Dead Stochastic Terrorist

At the end of the day, he was a mediocre guy who dropped out of college then found fame in convincing other mediocre guys who dropped out of college that minorities and women were chosen for jobs over mediocre men because of who they were and NOT because they were more qualified, worked harder and/or finished college.
That's his legacy.


His name should never be mentioned, ever again.

Damnatio memoriae.

Republican Senator Roman Hruska’s defense of Richard Nixon’s nomination of the most unqualified judge G. Harrold Carswell to the Supreme Court, e. g.

Of course, that was back in the days when supremely unqualified judges did NOT get confirmed to the Court, and, indeed, he wasn’t despite Hruska’s spirited defense of mediocrity as a virtue and asset.
