I hate it when I get to thinking there's more truth being spoken by fictional characters on a TV show than by anybody in any position of authority anywhere here in These United States of Opinion-As-Reality.
At the same time, I wonder if this is just to see if anybody's listening.
And I wonder if this little vignette is simply a plot device in Aaron Sorkin's devious little brain.
And what if it's only an attempt to illustrate his other point about Crowd Sourcing and the dangers of instant reactions due to the immediacy of social media driving the mob, which is masquerading as "true democracy"?
And I wonder if the whole thing is so twisty-turny that it spins off into the infinite numbers of universes where everything that can happen does happen, and all you have to do to make it real is to say it's real.
And what about the very very very very real shit hitting the fan because of Climate Disruption?
and and and - fuck, I hate my brain sometimes.
