Highly Radicalised Intelligentsia edit
I am uncomfortable with the statement in Themes that "Western governments were trying to win the war of ideas against a highly radicalised intelligentsia." The word "intelligentsia" is hardly ever used in England (the setting of the novel): it would be considered embarrassing, and nobody would claim to be a member. When used, it is generally pejorative, which also applies to the phrase "highly radicalized", which sounds like a right-wing put-down. The novel is much subtler than that. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Brymor (talk • contribs) 20:33, 4 November 2016 (UTC)
