Can you give some concrete examples of inorganic, overwhelming influence?
And then perhaps contrast it with some concrete organic, overwhelming influence examples. But that's a bonus.
- spondylosaurus 3y agoMaybe an organic overwhelming influence is how there's a lot of gay and Jewish people in musical theater? Unless it's actually an inorganic influence (thanks to the shady machinations of Big Sondheim...)
- jancsika 3y agoI've only ever understood "organic" to refer to one of four things: 1. Chemistry 2. Farming/food (under one of various specifications) 3.

I didn't do my research but I'd like to exhibit superiority to some other thing/group. (Otherwise, that other thing is more precisely described as "astroturfing," "fraud," "shills," etc.) 1: this used to be a bit superior, but it's old and obscure now so I grandfathered it in
