For all the mocking of Mr. Shatner we see in social media, he is actually a pretty smart guy and a good/great actor. Do know people who know him, and they respect him.
Twitter (those leftist jerks) took some shots at Mr Shatner and succeeded in harming him. But Mr. Shatner mostly ignored them and stood by his craft.
I dont know his politics, and thats the way it should be. Respect him for his talent and skill. The Star Trek universe would not exist but for him, Leonard Nimoy (may his soul reside in Heaven), and DeForest Kelly. (Sorry for typos, my iPhone is being a real pain.)
He is involved with Ziva Dynamics, a VR company, through which he has experienced nightmarish footage involving strange creatures that creep up on the user.
Its so real: its the stuff of nightmares Weve got to be really careful because you could put somebody into a psychosis, he said.

Seems like a bit of reverse psychology to me.
Remember the computer in the TV? All you had to do was say “computer” and it would listen to you and respond. Now we have Echo and Alexa, etc.
Science Fiction of today is science fact of tomorrow.
