Movies are fiction. You can't make policies based on fiction. You could make policies based on real concern shown by the movies, but they have to be based on reality.

We can’t be afraid of technology because of movies.

Do you not know of all the technology that we enjoy today that had movies and books decrying the dangers?

Rebranding the war department to the "defense" department is some of the best gaslighting ever pulled off.
