This 3-minute original Star Trek clip with Capt. James T. Kirk also applies to the media's power over the people as their sorcerer's illusion dissolves. Just takes adults, real adults to stand up to and expose them:

And the Children Shall Lead

They’re always after the children. They’re nothing without compliance.

And we have infantilized adults into man-children today. Sames.

The timeless truth the clip dialogue shares is about how evil preys on kind and trusting souls, like those of children. That's what state-directed narrative media does. Preys on kind and trusting souls. Like many of our friends and family.

Spock: "Tommy's father would have destroyed you, but he recognized you too late."

Gorgan: "Ah, you are also too late, the kind ones always are."

Kirk: "Not always Gorgan, not this time."

The t-shirt says "I Grok Spock".... And it just so happens that there is a software program the NSA uses called Grok... And it also just so happens that that is what Elon Musk named his AI software on X. Coincidences?

Coincidences or ultra powerful secret brain-control ray gun?

Notice the Fan's T-shirt - "I Grok Spock."

Could this type of Star-Trek fandom have influenced Elon's AI named "Grok?" Seems fitting since he is a space junkie too.

This is John Leake replying. Sci-Fi writer Robert Henlein coined Grok in his book "Stranger in a Strange Land," which became popular among computer science nerds.
