The Virus Is Seeing the Beauty

Hey Shatbots, loved last night’s podcast. A couple of points: 1. The virus is choosing to see the beauty. Dolores chose to see the beauty, as opposed to being forced to by her narrative, long after she created Halores. Therefore it is not something that Halores would account for. The...
