Remember that the current narrative is an average person with nothing to lose taking down a powerful person who uses their power for greed and evil. That's a very powerful and empowering idea.

Other powerful people, who know they are just as greedy and evil, desperately want to change that narrative because they know how weak their position truly is if we collectively decide we're done with the capitalistic status quo.

Bringing in an "expert" to explain to how it's probably something else, without any evidence to support that hypothesis, and while completely ignoring the observer bias of the chosen expert, is a good example of trying to subvert the story.

I spent far too much time being childish with this, but I am quite pleased that:

69420694-2069-4206-9420-694206942069

is a valid UUID.

There is the "one shared brain cell" meme. See Walthazarbobalthazarfeefiefofalthazar III (Walter the Catt, for short).

But smart or stupid, impish or limpish, all cats are baby.
