But the reality is that the legal positions the administration has taken, which is like, if we deport you by mistake, we don't have to go get you, means that a US citizen could suffer that fate and could end up, you know, trapped in a foreign prison for the rest of their life for no good reason at all.

Yeah. So, I mean, my argument is basically every field that involves gathering knowledge the Trump administration is trying to defund or impose a stifling, you know, we could use the phrase political correctness on any kind of scientific, historical, cultural inquiry. They don't want any studies saying employers, landlords, or anybody else is discriminating on the basis of race.

They don't want any studies that say climate change is affecting the environment. They don't want any studies that say pollution is bad for you and makes you sick. They don't want any museum exhibits that discuss the history of racism in the United States. They don't want any art produced or history produced or taught that teaches anybody anything that might lead to people believing that

industry should be more strictly regulated, that equality under the law is not already a reality, or that we should redistribute income from the rich to people who are not rich. And it is basically an attempt to exert ideological control over basically every knowledge producing institution in the United States.

And they're doing this, I think, because one is that they see knowledge workers, white collar workers who are engaged in any kind of knowledge production as a kind of class enemy given educational polarization in the United States. And so they want fewer of those people because they believe that will also mean fewer Democrats getting elected.

The example that I use is if you go back to the first administration with COVID, you know, Trump saying, you know, if we stopped counting the cases, we wouldn't have so many cases. That is basically the same thing that's going on here. If we can prevent the production of empirical information.

that can be used to politically oppose the administration, then people just have to trust us and whatever it is we say, they are dependent on the fire hose of propaganda that we produce day in and day out. And I think, you know, the American research infrastructure is probably the most profitable, effective one that has ever existed in the history of humanity.

And that's simply a matter of like the time that we live in and how rich America is. I don't think it's like anything particular to humanity. But, you know, what's ironic, I think, is like, you know, you have all these people from the tech industry who are involved in this sort of dismantling of this.
