People look at it through the prism of their own lives and what has either happened in their own lives, what they've done, what their spouse has done, what they fear might happen.
I think that's why some of these things resonate.
I guess all I'm saying is that the public morality being imposed on them seems inconsistent
for me, with the public morality that we've kind of allowed to take root where we know that a lot of people with a lot of power in politics or in business do this and far worse.
And we seem to come to the conclusion as a society, that's not our business.
Yes.
I totally agree.
I totally agree.
They, exactly.
I think that's, you're absolutely right.
I haven't thought about it that, but I think that's exactly the key to it is that they, and Chris Martin noticed it right away, right?
He said, oh my God, look at how ashamed they are.
Like they must be doing something wrong.
So if they react like they're doing something wrong, of course the public is going to say, oh yeah, they've done something wrong.
And so I do think-
That's the part where either you do this behavior and you say, look, this is my life.
This is my choice.
This is not your business.
Or if you're going to act like you just got caught doing something terribly wrong, don't be surprised when everybody else sees it the same way.
And I think that is the key to why that became such a big story.
