“once those things get a little bit smart they’re not going to stop at a little bit smart for very long they’re gonna be unbelievably smart like overnight. ”
Celebrity opinions count for something in ways that expert opinions do not. They seem to reach more people, for one thing. That’s partially because people just accept what celebrities say because they admire them, but it seems to me that it’s also because celebrities tend to find ways of expressing the essence of ideas that are more accessible to laypeople.
Anyway, for whatever the reason, celebrities who openly express their opinions can make a difference, and I think we should celebrate when one of them gets something right and is willing to talk about it.
