On TV right now

PBS, a thing about Elvis.

Worth listening to just to hear Levon Helm's narration.

I like Levon Helm, but not enough to watch a thing about Elvis.

Somehow, I didn't picture you as an Elvis kinda guy.

My m-i-l does not like Elvis. She preferred...and I'm drawing a blank on the name now..."Hot diggety dog diggety"--whoever that white-bread kinda guy is! I'll look it up if I can't remember before I finish typing. Anyway, I lurves me some Elvis, and that's one of the few old things we disagree on. Other than how she loves "A Tree Grows In Brooklyn" but won't read the @#$%#@ book even though I tell her the movie doesn't touch on a third of the book!

Still can't pull the name...

Well, ain't that something! Elvis was telling me exactly the same thing about you last night. Small world, huh?

I think that's a portrait not an avatar.
Suitguy is not bitter.

feels he represents the many educated and rational onlookers who believe that the hysterical denouncement of lay scepticism is both unwarranted and counter-productive

The problem, then, is that such calls do not address an opposition audience so much as they signal virtue. They talk past those who need convincing. They ignore actual facts and counterargument. And they are irreparably smug.
