"the man we idolised turned out to be a bad person, but it's okay, this other man hasn't fucked up yet so we can just idolise him twice as hard!"
Do you people not see the problem
#this is about#neil gaiman#and the way people just immediately started to worship tennant&sheen twice as much#instead of maybe thinking for a moment and realising that the problem with parasocial relationship is not that it was with the wrong person#i'm not saying that sheen or tennant will 100% fuck up just as badly and i sure hope they won't#but regardless of how nice someone actually might be you shouldn't extend so much adoration and trust to a person you don't even know#even if their public image is nice and their works are great. you just should never worship real people. because it's bad for you#thank you for coming to my ted talk
