Episode notes

i cannot have faith that social media is able to bypass the walls that governments put up and connect people directly. Just i also think that if leaders met in person, i ave a conversation that would cure a lot of the ills of the world, especially in private. And then you get to realize who like people falling in love across different nations and religions and so on. That, i think, ultimately can cure a many of our ills, especiallys in person. It's a big shock for people to realize they've been essentially lied to within their country.
