Let's say you're a charismatic guy, burning with passion and hunger, looking for your slice of eternal glory. And starting out, you made a name for yourself as a cultural critic or a comedian or as a maverick scientist. Your fans saw you as brilliant, charming, inspiring. But how many fans? Was it enough? You rode home from your gigs in a humming limo, thinking about that theater, the comedy club, that undergrad class you were teaching, such small, shabby spaces, keeping your light, as Jesus says, under a barrel. But then one day, as if in a dream, you feel the door of the internet crack open. And in the cold blue light, you see the streams of infinite code that can turn the fans you can see into followers you can monetize. The algorithm shows you the emotional wounds of the whole world and how to both soothe and pick at them. Following your intuition, you seek out the norms of journalistic, political, and medical consensus. So you can test those norms and break them. You enter a flow state as a perpetual disruptor and you can't even count the money that pours in. But being a chaos agent is exhausting. And the internet never ends. It's abstract, groundless, you're rising or falling in empty space. And at some point, all of your content seems stale and redundant. All the conspiracy theories, outrage farming, and dietary supplements are boring. And your manic salesmanship starts to feel hollow. Maybe you're also wondering about whether you've sold your soul or who you may have heard along the way. What will you turn to? Who will help you? What will your ultimate piece of content be? From time out of mind, there's only ever been one answer. And that's God.
