Some of the people refuse to believe that the accelerator and steering wheel do anything, even though the pro-cliff people are clearly steering and accelerating.

Some people think we’ve already gone over the cliff, and thus trying to drive the bus is meaningless.

They’re wrong, but they believe it, and people’s beliefs are sometimes too precious to let go.

And some people aren’t on the bus, just on video chat, but for some reason are still arguing to drive off the cliff.
