Be this thing.
And the way that you see other people wanting you to kind of be this thing, again, not to take away the personal responsibility of bad behavior, but other people's desire for you to be a thing can, of course, encourage you to be that.
Yeah, to go back really quick to the Nick Fuentes thing, a piece I wrote about a month ago was comparing people like him and a lot of podcasters like Andrew Tate as essentially the new gangster rappers, where they get in front of a microphone and they say like the most heinous, make your mom cry stuff, and that that's the kind of modern purpose they serve.
And I was talking about how commercially rap has been on the decline for the last few years,
And only half in jest do I point out that, like, the rise of certain kinds of podcasters tie in with this idea of, like, this is like... Well, sorry to interrupt you, but I think it's the idea... The thing that flashes in my mind is, like, who's on the mic?
I'm not surprised people were interested in that.
When I saw those clips, I'm like, this will go viral.
I'm like, when you're talking about being approached by people.
Oh, I mean, like, it is strange.
As you said, and it's very, very true, people end up having an idea of you that's based off this person that does and doesn't exist.
It's the public avatar.
I mean, occult concepts like tulpas or whatever of you, or it's like this third created creature that isn't you.
And so at some point early on, again, the sociopathic nature of being a pop star or any sort of public figure, you have to, like, pathologically turn off certain kinds of criticism.
in the sense of you can't listen to it all.
And they're usually criticizing something that exists a little bit independently of you after a certain point.
I'm not at that point, but you certainly are, where it's like the Billy Corgan that exists as an idea or as a cartoon.
At some point, you're like, oh, I'm not that guy either.
I get a kick out of that guy, you know?
It's just dogma or cliche.
Right.
