That is true on many levels and I can see why people might want to urge against the imagery of puppet masters but we’re talking about the same process either way. A mutual one if you like, where certain individuals gain a public platform through force of will and strength of their arguments etc, but presumably one that implies some convergence with the interests of broadcasters, pr departments, gatekeepers, you know, the puppet masters. it plays out at a mundane level that we’re all familiar with and recognise daily, you’d imagine that for all her talents greta may not have gained the position she has if she’d been photographed throwing up on her trainers like you lot did when you were her age. a bad example for sure but you get the idea, we all understand how the puppet masters reflexively intervene in this process.
