The modern intellectual does not at all correspond to the outdated idea of an individual who is "on the side of reason"
Today's intellectual is a person with a position in society, adapting to the main political, cultural and intellectual trends and behaving as a decent, thinking person should.
Today's intellectual must be cool, classy, awesome, which in practice means paying tribute to the dominant mass culture, being a moderately radical (i.e. pseudo-radical), a moderately Protestant (i.e. pretending to be a Protestant).
Today, being an intellectual means, first of all, being an opportunist.
