I don’t want to be too hard on Burgess here, because he is a little better at being fair to both sides than some of his counterparts. But let’s face it: the only reason there even are two sides is because he made his anti-violence conditioning also remove ability to enjoy classical music. Which in terms of subtlety, is only one step above “as a side effect, using science gives you an overwhelming urge to drown kittens”.
