Sometime after puberty, most people put away their toys and stop playing dress-up and pretend in order to take a stab at being an adult.
Others go to Hollywood where they can continue playing dress-up and pretend. Maybe because they cannot find work as a grown-up. Maybe because they cannot stop pretending to be someone they are not because they have never had the working material to be someone in the real world.
And you are not going to believe this, but a lot of those people who left the playground in favor of becoming gown-ups pay money to see the ones who could not make it as a grown-up in the real world pretend to be someone they are not in some of the most forgettable stories ever written in human history.
And you are not going to believe this, but the PC media quotes the opinions of these impostors as though they carry forth with the gravitas of H.L. Mencken, G. K. Chesterton or Blaise Pascal contemplating the human condition.
The PC media loves Hollywood and Hollywood loves the PC media and the PC media loves Hollywood for loving the PC media. They are both cut from the same imaginary cloth.
