at the wheel

this is the part where my mother, who to my knowledge has never read Foucault, pretty much sums up his work in response to my previous post, titled "intervention":

I mean don't you think everyone who's talking about being
defective/flawed/potential addict is really just repeating what the
Catholic Church has been telling people for a couple millennia? Nothing
new under the sun and all that.

so as usual, my mother is driving, as it were.
