Aaron Sorkin didn't just create the brainwashing that government was a handful of smarty pants super friends who ran everything he also created brainwashing that corporate media was a handful of smarty pants super friends with supernatural instinct to choose what to report, which authoritarian policies were worth amplifying, which dissident commentary to suppress. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ECgjvStB5U https://x.com/BillHughesDC/status/1886123803195113564

there's a point where one realizes that an entire cabalistic culture really spiraled itself into see humanitarian disaster as a game of moral exceptionalism, with the ulterior motive of seizing power through a morality-captivated populism. why would identity politics extend itself so far into diversity of speech? why gamble away the "big tent" coalition?

then you realize that the Landians, of all the cabals, were the ones who could soft-reset the timeline without the equivalent suffering of the 20th century Greatest Generation, or worse, the "lost generation" of the Cultural Revolution. but they are relatively unitary technocrats, not interested in checks and balances.
