Lawyers
From a comment I made at Disqus ATLS last week in reponse to a great short opinion post by a lawyer I admire:
"Well done. Well written. Lawyers are at their best when they talk about things other than just the law. Keep doing this. It's why I ever got on line. Blogged. Read other blogs. To see lawyers with personality and actual talent. And you personally are the only reason I ever went to comments at old ATL. I want to see lawyers as humans with style, flair, wit and verve. And having lived real lives. Lawyers are not special anymore. They don't lead anymore. Vast vast majority are followers with sideline lives. Minor players. The Profession now? It's a complicated caste system with an increasingly diluted gene pool. But what you do here is special. Class. Keep doing it."

The 'Conservative' Revolution in the West. What happened?
In a nutshell? Liberal overreaching for decades toward "mandatory moral evolution" in the US and Europe woke up millions tired of being called Racist, Sexist and Homophobic.
It got Don Trump elected. And it's just taking hold.

What happens when you think on your own, anyway?
At Saatchi & Saatchi, Paul Arden's ad campaigns changed everything for British Airways.
