Knowing what we know about rhetoric and now about the definition of orality, it makes me think, can one use rhetoric only orally? Or can rhetoric show up in other ways of life besides just speaking out to someone?

This is a different perspective that I have never looked into but yet completely understand. Rhetoric, what we know to be "the act of persuading someone," is the same thing as "producing a 'fake' reality." Thinking about how to persuade someone, you must be able to successfully convince them of something you believe.

For example, if Betty says a tomato is a vegetable and I am trying to convince her it is a fruit, I must make her see a reality that she does not see. Yet, someone if successful would be able to persuade me that fruit is a vegetable and not a fruit. And with enough persuasion, it is possible I can be persuaded that the other side is right. I would be moving to a reality that is ot my reality due to the act of persuasion. Thinking about that from an analytical standpoint is quite interesting.

"But the internet loving you, it should be said, is not often a good thing."

To me, this is kind of connected to the point of kairos in the timing of things. Celebrities have to be more cautious about what they post, but more importantly, when they post it, because they have more eyes on them in the process. If their timing to post something especailly if it contrversail is wrong, they are at higher risk of throwing away their whole career over one poor timing choice.

And this is a very sad reality that I feel people don't truly grasp. Especially with social media being so easy to access, the spread and timing of misinformation can be very dangerous. Because if you get the timing wrong and post the "facts" too early without being certain before realizing it, it truly can ruin someones life. And unfortunately, even with apologies and corrections being made after the fact, most people (especially if they are intermittently famous) will not be able to bounce back.
