Here’s an interesting scenario:
As a child, a stranger libeled your beloved parent as committing a vile act of violence, based only on an unfounded assertion. Because your parent was a public figure, your family could not get redress.
As an adult, you join in the libeling of dozens of strangers — some public figures, most everyday people — as committing vile acts of violence. The accusations — at least those against the everyday folk — are, again, based on assertions backed by … nothing.
I can’t say much more. But who wants to take this up as theater?
I’d buy tickets.
