¹ For examples of his contemporaries' willful disregard of the failings of the Soviet Union, see the book Political Pilgrims by Paul Hollander .

² I thought Theodore Sturgeon had coined the "pot of message" remark, but on rereading the source (a Sturgeon short story from 1948 entitled Unite and Conquer) find that a character in the story was quoting a "Dr. Pierce" with that remark. Wherever it came from, it's a perfect description of why his later books weren't as good as the early ones.

This needs a lot more yet...yes it does
