Explain Arthue Koestler to me like I was a 12 year old or POTUS

Hi O

Can anyone explain Arthur Koestler’s theory of “Ghost In The Machine” to me reeeeel slow and using little bitty words?

mm

What does the president of the United States have to do with it?

I think he’s saying the POTUS, being George W Bush, would need to have things explained to him like a twelve year old. Hopefully this guy is fairly new so he is acting out of ignorance here. Otherwise he/she should know we aren’t supposed to start political debates like that in general questions. Or at least that’s how I understand the rules of the forum.

This forum is called General Questions. This is the place for factual questions. Factual means matters of fact, not opinion.

We keep politics out of General Questions. We don’t take pot shots.

That is why I’m closing this thread.

If you can rephrase the question without the pot shots, you’re welcome to try.

I hope I didn’t use too many big words for you.
