Tim describes the strange cult-like, contradictory politics of embittered LA failed-creatives who preach harm reduction and progressive slogans while being secretly awful people with nothing left to lose.

In this bit7 moments
  • LA has too many embittered narcissists who failed at creative endeavors and want the world to burn because they didn't get a series regular role on Hacks.
  • Homeless people can't walk around with gas cans just because someone didn't get cast on a TV show—they have to accept it and move on.
  • LA activists confuse you with their rhetoric about police breaking up homeless fentanyl dealers, making you unsure if they're good or terrible people.
  • These people lure you in—many are attractive, sweet, or nice—before revealing how crazy they actually are.
  • Tim describes hearing someone express hope that the current situation doesn't make people turn their back on Gavin Newsom, identifying it as cult behavior.
  • LA's failed actors don't even benefit from parroting talking points anymore because there are no jobs for them in the system that used to trade fame for ideological compliance.
  • The old deal in LA—become famous in exchange for not challenging approved narratives—is gone, yet these people keep babbling and talking nonsense with nothing left to gain.
