My opinion on the Beckhams is that if you have a Spice Girl at your wedding, she gets to dance however and on whom ever she wants! Be grateful for her orbit because your Old Money just can't buy certain things.

Also, if you teach Weber or Bourdieu soon, this epic public fallout is a teaching gift

It's not just these days though. It's been like that for a long time.

It was like that in 2014 in Wisconsin. And it was like that in 2021 in Barcelona.

And if it is public - the first question people ask before deciding to attend - "is there security? Does the police know?"

This. Is. Not. New.
