“The death of Paul Ehrlich, at a decidedly selfish, resource-hogging 93, has elicited a resounding consensus on his legacy. He has been roundly condemned on both right and left as one of the most malign and unrepentant doom-mongers to sway public opinion and policy since the pre-war eugenics movement. Initially an entomologist specialising in moths and butterflies, Ehrlich became famous during the late 1960s and early 1970s for trying to prevent the spread of what he saw as an altogether more troublesome species – his own, mankind.” (03/18/26)
