This may be the pluperfect Dreher post, @edroso -- quotes Wendell Berry, pimps homeschooling, has reader-comment edit on transgenderism, blames large schools, etc. All suffused w/ fear. Missing? A pic of him feeding his face. So maybe just a contender.https://t.co/EVvXykU83M

My prejudice: I went to a *huge* high school, where one could take four years of Russian, a million different lit classes, etc. So my enthusiasm for the kountry klassrooms of Fritters is perhaps not quite at his level.

Excellent point. And you could have little schools because no one was expected to know much more than readin’, writin’ and cipherin’. The reader comment he added is particularly dickish, btw.

Edroso is the master of Rod-haters, especially here.

Look at it this way: It's a break from the endless, multi-thousand-word posts about people with the wrong takeaway about the Benedict Option.

I was in 10th grade when I learned that communication is a loop, and if someone misunderstands what you said/wrote, you should consider that maybe you weren't clear. Rod...takes a different approach.

I think it's worse. He's constantly calling for people to withdraw from modern life (schools, telecommunications, culture), then saying "of course BO is not about withdrawing from modern life, didn't you see in chapter 1 where I said it wasn't?"

6 March update: What exactly is she accusing him of? A kind of sock-puppeting?
Why do all of Dreher's "reader letters" read like they were written by the same person? The voice, word choice, hand-wringing attitude, all of it. I'm not the world's most experienced editor, but I know writing styles are highly individual. These aren't. https://t.co/kaiP3QpBib
