Living in the core really drives it home constantly.

Your coworkers' amicable attitudes towards policies and laws designed to ruin people is 'acceptable', whereas treating those policies with open contempt is not.

Something about the civility of language and all that.

It's something a guy named Cockburne used to ask his interns. A way of gauging if they had fire inside them, if they thought of the world as something awful and broken that could and should be mended.

Interns at what exactly? Who the fuck is Cockburne?

Alex Cockburn was a socialist journalist who worked for The Nation. He was pretty solid on his analysis of US foreign policy, but kinda sucked on Freedom of Speech.

And if anyone is reading this and has never heard it said aloud, unfortunately it's pronounced "coh-burn" sicko-wistful
