Bourgeois Intelligentsia Lecture Hall

Student: “And who are the ‘good citizens’ in this desired society?”
Lecturer: “The good citizens are those who let themselves be re-educated without being pushed, merely prompted.”
Student: “And the not-so-good ones?”
Lecturer: “Well, there’s different gradations. There’s not-so-good ones, as you put it, who can become good ones - those who become re-educated after being pushed, for instance. The really not good ones are those who refuse to be re-educated even after being pushed.”
Student: “But the younger generations - they don’t often have to be re-educated as simply educated, is that so?”
Lecturer: “Yes, that is so.”
