It is not remarkable in any way. Being a massive transparent hypocrite is what all those ghouls do, including Sam. I honestly wonder if they feel any contradiction.
Or they mastered the art of doublethink so completely, that them personally having total control over the planet seems like an obvious solution to every single problem humanity faces, or will face.
It would upset me, but holy crap what a topic for the first half an hour of the date. Will get you right through the awkward phase!
"So, wild story, my dad set this date. Can you believe this crap? I have no idea what he put in my profile, hopefully nothing too cringe.. He wrote I love trains??? FFS you make ONE model train when you're 12, and you're a 'train girl' forever. Honestly I almost no-show, but you didn't deserve being stood up.. Anyway, wanna vent about stupid shit your parents did?"
