bshock,I'm skeptical of "the flaw" you describe as fatal to Brin's argument. I see the world growing more niche based culture thanks to the internet and I suspect a large dose of tolerance will be needed as individuals become more open to holding diverse tastes.Part of this includes more of the public realizing and understanding people are far from infallible, stretching even to the police. The public in essence hires the police and thereby can fire them or reduce their purview by limiting the laws they enforce.

To me, this kind of conversation belongs alongside the radical honesty ( http://www.overcomingbias.c... ) as Biomed Tim alluded.
