But being really really good at acting or playing music does not necessarily translate to having a particularly wise or well-informed view on moral philosophy, social science, or geopolitics.

Well of course not. But everyone has an opinion and if they want to express it then so be it! If you’re a celebrity I can’t even imagine what that’s like. But I respect if people say how they truly feel if it’s heartfelt regardless - but I guess that’s also the catch 22 too. If you’re a celebrity you might need to carefully craft your public opinions since the wrong thing could put you in the baddie category.
Yes.

Some of us try to elect leaders like that. Others… go for reality tv actors
