Everyone who read S&H and understood them, anyway.
Also, if some "Prophets" have a good image, it's because they had competent Nomads working for them to make pragmatic daily decisions. Without the Eisenhowers and Pattons, FDR would have stayed a useless talker.

It seems to me that they deserve someone to tell them that they have no right to make any moral judgements unless they'll go in sackcloth for the rest of their life.

No one should disagree with that.

I also suspect that you Asperger might have to do sth with it. (Maybe all those Boomers out there hate autism/Asperger because ppl with it tend to say the blunt truth? I'm talking about the anti-vacc crowd.)

Few parents do that. Maybe autism/Asperger folks intuitively understand if something isn't logical? No wonder the "NT" drive them crazy.

Agree 100%.
