I Don't Follow Or Worship Celebrities

Everyone has the same value. But had we lost these two, it would have made the news.

It would have. Curious how we have come to believe that because someone is visible they have more intrinsic value, when often the opposite is true. The more time humans spend in the spotlight, the less humane they often become.

@Mamapolo2016 Well, I don't think they have [b][i]less[/i][/b] intrinsic value, either. But I don't see anyone as being more important than anyone else, and spotlighting promotes the notion they are.

@PhoenixPhail They don't naturally have less intrinsic value, but as their fame increases, not always, but often, their opinion of the worth of others decreases.

@Mamapolo2016 Yeah. It's sad when that happens.
