Bottom line is you don't just become famous and influential.

There was a post on VoxDay a couple weeks ago where he mentioned about how these famous types come about. According to him, or at least his contact, about 90% of these rich celebs and talking heads are in on the same narrative, and funded from the same groups. All of them have some kind of blackmail on them.

Only about 10% are from the 'did it my own way' track, and don't have the blackmail on them to be exposed, or threatened.

At the end of the day, I just turned everything off and don't participate in this madness.

It's the only logical outcome given enough time, if you think about it. It's like entropy. Power just keeps consolidating and spreading as far as it can, infinitely. Any entity that stops trying to gain more power will eventually get absorbed into one that does.

For example, a cavalcade of charismatic celebrities spewing support for current thing™️is a very valuable asset. If the CIA hadn't sunk its claws into Hollywood to turn it into a propaganda mill, someone else would have.
