Gianni Vattimo considers how intellectuals have become a middle class

The Italian philosopher Gianni Vattimo considers that "any questioning of the superiority of capitalism over any other economic system has become unthinkable. ... In order to debate the legitimacy of capitalism some knowledge of economy is necessary. Philosophers are rarely qualified to intervene on these subjects. The cultural industry has turned intellectuals into the middle class. Middle as in average income that so many 'Bohemians', artists, writers and other thinkers in the past never dreamt they would obtain. Middle because they function as mediators, go-betweens 'lubricating' the system, creating consensus, indeed medium as in 'media'-friendly. ... The media tends to stir-up the emotions of the masses, rolling them into one big homogenous 'television audience'. Critical intellectuals are being wiped out as a consequence."
