> since Musk’s takeover. Yaccarino, who was once considered a serious person in the industry Emphasis mine. Yaccs, now Yacx, reminds me of that lady who was Hitler's private secretary. You have done no killing in the camps, none of the shooting, you didn't formulate those laws and regulations to help in the genocide, none of that. You just did your 9-to-5 job like a regular girl. Right next to and at the beck and call of your idealized and, in your view, slightly misunderstood and wrongly demonized (by some) boss. But it's this very proximity, both the physical and the syntactic, that will be your undoing. You willingly opened the door to his echo chamber and walked right into the heart of it, the epicenter. When your boss is physically gone forever one day, when his enterprise lies in ruins and bankruptcy, then no matter what your afterlife will look like, you will never get to leave that close syntactic and narrative proximity, ever. Even if you lay down your steno pad tomorrow and declare distance and independence, writers will always keep writing about you as "Ms So-and-so, who once was part of the innermost circle around The-one-who-we-shall-not-name, ...". Before that day, just in order to keep returning to that cherished office of yours, you must amplify whatever BS is cooked up there, and cook up your own distortions and outright lies. It's not an option, it's vital. To those who are mad at me for drawing a tired, frivolous analogy to a certain unpopular historical figure (who is easily magnitudes more of a villain than E.M.), let me say, One, the story is true, and the lady fessed up late in her life when she was like 90yo. Two, I could've chosen from any number of absolute boss + smart but obedient aide situations, past and present. This particular story is just a reminder that once you're inside, the sky is the limit when it comes to reality distortion fields. They are physically real, in the sense that they destroy people's lives, both inside and outside of The Circle.
