Back in the late 80s I loved SNL. I thought it was the coolest show ever, and I played guitar, and I wanted to be a rock star. So with that mindset I was one with the media, and it was able to feed me just about anything. When they picked on gay people, I picked on gay people. When they said that George HW Bush was at war for oil, I parroted it. Whatever the TV said, I doubled down on it.

I think this happens to a lot of young people (impressionable) who want to be part of the media. They think that they have to follow the cues to get there,
but in reality we're just being manipulated.
