It reminds me of somebody who said she wanted to be a film director, got a decent camcorder and editing rig, but always had excuses why she wasn’t performing. My friends and I helped her film a music festival for instance and she had a whole year to edit it to make a disc to sell at the next year’s festival and she put it off and was still duplicating the discs when the next year’s festival was ongoing so we sold very few and didn’t have her leadership for doing shoots.
Her work inhibition had something to do with a fantasy that she had some idea inside of her that was so dangerous that she’d be killed if she tried to express it. Well she wound up nearly killing herself by getting addicted to heroin, thank God she got clean and is still with us.
I think today there are people who have very similar feelings. They think what they have to say is important, dangerous or whatever but really it just crap like ‘You should take dog pills to cure COVID-19’ or ‘I want to paint a Z on my car to show I am a free thinker’
There are some serious delusions of grandeur going on.
These sorts of folk are mad that somebody got the ads turned off on their pro-Russia YouTube channel and never stop to think that in Russia you really could be arrested, poisoned, killed for a ‘crime’ like calling a war for war or running for public office.
