Robert Kuttner also has tin ears. "Entitlements" is the exact opposite of means-tested programs or "welfare." You pay into Medicare and Social Security, you are "entitled" to them. There is nothing pejorative about the term. He pulled that out of his ass, just like the idiots on Democratic Underground.
I agree about the absurd "Latinx," which is in fact racist in its complete dismissal of Latino culture. However, Kuttner could have gone after the entire postmodern/queer theory lexicon as perverting the English language and threatens to destroy the Democratic Party.

Yes the mid-1960s was the golden age of popular music, but it isn't solely due to the untalented performer Bob Dylan or the British Invasion. Even hits by relatively minor acts are considered classics.
