rooting out the hidden Reds
Weird. I read that as "hidden Reels" on first viewing and started wondering about samizdat folk dancing.
To be honest, I'm beginning to wonder myself about WAV's make-up. No normal person could take the level of criticism that's been levelled at him and still keep coming back with the same old tosh. There must be something truly dysfunctional about him, and I would be intrigued to see him in a social situation to get a real measure of the bloke.
Which leaves one with a dilemma. What is the form for dealing with some who is, shall we say, 'special needs', but who happens to hold views which are unacceptable to others? I could maybe liken it to dealing with someone who has particularly marked Tourette's. Is it best to ignore, to admonish, to encourage? Help!
