   Kitty my sweet and loving daughter, The above joke   
   has a point, perhaps unintended: the movers and   
   shakers of a movement, in their (not necessarily   
   neophytes') zeal, push their movement so hard that   
   they lose sight of what their movement is intended   
   to accomplish and thereby distort it, in many cases   
   beyond recognition, and in the end poison it beyond   
   repair. What the Communists did and still do to Marx   
   is a case in point.   
      
      
      
   The hot controversy on Trump's remarks about what   
   he could do to women (grab th-em by the p***y), got   
   Jackson Katz, co-founder of the Mentors in Violence   
   Prevention, an anti-rape program taught at   
   universities nationwide, to say:   
      
   <<“Boys will either rise to our expectations or sink to   
   them, in the locker room or otherwise. And we need   
   to raise our expectations for what it means to be a   
   boy or a man.”>>   
      
   He seems not to see the double entendre in his   
   remark.
