I have been struggling to figure out how to even appropriately like talk about address report on like conflicts of interest that are this deep this obvious and that's such a large swath of the like power structural and societal permission structure has decided they're not going to engage with.
Speaker 1
Yeah. Not, and not just not engage with, I almost think this is like a, it's, it's, it's kind of a brilliant play by these guys, um, to bombard us with so much absolute nonsense at all at once that it be like it actually becomes nearly impossible to decipher signal from noise because like it's all signal but it's all actually noise then like if it's all signal what are you even able to like are we supposed to be paying attention to the zig heil are we supposed to be paying attention to the executive orders are we supposed to be paying attention how do you how do you attention to all of it? And I assure you that when whatever your domain of expertise is, we have listeners and viewers from every part of society. When they come for your area of expertise, you're going to be horrified by what they're willing to do to your industry. You will be horrified. It will be shocking and it will be horrifying for you. And we're seeing it play out time and time and time again. If you're a rocket scientist, Elon Musk doesn't know anything about rockets. If you're a car engineer, Elon Musk doesn't understand how to make cars. If you're a programmer, he doesn't know how to code. If you're a gamer, he doesn't know how to play games. Like everything he touches, he doesn't actually know anything about. And I assure you that when Elon Musk and Donald Trump and David Sachs did this executive order, I don't even know, they probably spoke to the biggest scammers in crypto to get their advice and venture capitalists. And that's it.
