So OP what's your take?

Illuminati took him out because he was gonna reveal their initiation secrets?
Was Skull and Bones mad he talked about that one time at Bohemian Grove?
Perhaps the Reptilians caught him snooping in the basement of Denver International?

Wait - I got it - he was about to expose the TLC, BBG and NWO unified plot to install Agenda 21 in every community?

Damn....

Exactly.  I also love it when people take the effort to post just how much they don't care about something/someone.

Your OP was a truly mind blowing concept that surely isn't conveyed almost daily through the "who" posts in every celebrity death threads.  You should probably write a book.  I will ponder on this for years.

I guess I'm going through a cynical phase because I kind of agree with the OP.



I guess I just don't understand why "acting" is so goddamn worthy of the worship it gets. There is a downs syndrome theater group. I saw a show about them, they were very good actors.



My job can't be preformed by someone with downs syndrome.



Why is it that if someone is an actor (or a musician) all of a sudden people treat them like they know more than people that know stuff?



I know depression is a horrible thing, a lot of people suffer from it. Why is it so much more tragic when an actor has it?





I can think of a lot of people suffering right now, I can't really get worked up over Robin Williams.

People like acting, what can I say?  And they feel empathetic when they see someone with a disability acting.

Why is it that if someone is an actor (or a musician) all of a sudden people treat them like they know more than people that know stuff?

I don't treat actors like they know more than people that "know stuff,." I respect the professors I had in college because they knew their subjects.  I had a college math teacher that taught math better than any other prof I had.  

On that token, I respect musicians for the work that they do.  No more, no less.  Take Peter Frampton for example, I've seen his live shows, and the man can perform, but he's not any better or less than a college professor, or whatever job you do.

I know depression is a horrible thing, a lot of people suffer from it. Why is it so much more tragic when an actor has it?

It puts a face to it and puts depression in the spotlight.  I have a friend that's battling with depression but if I told you her name, not many people on this forum or in general would really notice, it wouldn't stick in their mind like Robin Williams did.

The reason people are upset really is that this came out of nowhere. No one saw this coming.

We're not allowed to be sad about both?

Williams had more sentimental value to me. Though Noveske had many years ahead of him.

Both are sad.

How many of you got choked up about the recent death of Harold Greene? How many of you even know who that is?
But hey, let's saturate the airways with the news of an entertainer's death, like he was the greatest person ever.

Exactly.  I for one was more shocked and saddened by MG Greene's death than Robin Williams killing himself.

Not that it isn't worth a mention, but this wall-to-wall coverage is ridiculous.

Don't think he rates being memorialized?   He's had a larger impact for a longer time on people that anything going on in the news.  Deal with it.

There is no conspiracy.  The problem is the general public cares more about this trash than they do anything else.  Meanwhile Yezidi children starve to death on a mountain, terrorists are raping and killing men, women, and children, Putin pushes on, and the public worries about some poor actor killing himself because his life was to tough he couldn't take it.....

People aren't grieving because he was an actor.  They are grieving because he touched many lives and brought smiles to many faces.  Dismissing an individual actor's impact just because "he was an actor" is just as bad as undeservedly glorifying one for the same reason.  People are not upset because an actor died; they're upset because Robin Williams - the man - died.

Lest we forget, Ronald Reagan was "an actor".
