  Actually, intellectuals are no less susceptible to propaganda than the "un-
  washed masses". Hitler enjoyed considerable support among the German intel-
  lectual elite, and when one reads what American intellectuals wrote about
  Stalin during the 1930s, it's pretty obvious that merely being "educated"
  is no safeguard against totalitarians and their lies.
