Snowden has said some dumb stuff in the past, but he's also usually shown a capacity to admit when he's been wrong. At least, I thought so, until this latest RFK JR brain worm.

Trying to explain Witch Windows to my 4-year-old: "They're built on an angle, so witches can't fly through them." "But witches aren't real." "Well, they are, but not the way you think." "But they don't live in Boston" "Well, not anymore, but that's complicated."

I think the reason Philip K Dick is still the predominant SF writer of the last century is, he was the only one who foresaw a future where everything would be boring, inconvenient and dehumanising, and where the only way you can win is to somehow refuse to give up your humanity.
