My semi-deep thought from the armchair?

I think we relate to villains because they start out good and get broken by life. I also think society as a whole has quit encouraging people to look up to heroes and be challenged to be better. We live in the era of "my truth" "my way" and "my reality." We used to have ideals to look up to and strive towards even if they were utterly unacheivable.

Now we’re left with relatable villains and wondering how long it’ll be before we resemble them.

I think he’s an overall positive person, I don’t agree with everything he says ofcourse, but he makes us think.

Damn, a thoughtful and civil conversation! Fuck Twitter forever!

😂🤣 twitter only cares about likes and comments and things that will catch chatter, and sell ads.

Here we look for signal over noise.

Truthful
