Honestly with Bari Weiss
Tiger Mom Amy Chua Takes Washington

Again, like there's a nerd stereotype and there's a jock stereotype, but I teach a lot of students who were great athletes and there's a reason they ended up at Yale Law School, right? Because that teaches you a lot of grit and leadership.

I think a lot of people who go on to do well in politics, you know, were good at sports because that develops certain other kinds of skills that are very positive. So I don't know. I felt like it was all very reductive on both sides.

Yeah, I mean, I'm worried. Maybe it goes back to your first question. So I think things went too far. I wrote about this in Political Tribes. I said it's a bad idea when you're having, you know, you force white people to say, I check my privilege. I'm so sorry that I'm white and everything white is bad. I was like, just psychologically, that's not sustainable.

Maybe for a couple, maybe some people like saying that. But eventually, somebody's going to come along and say, you know what? Actually, white people are good. And in fact, whatever And that, I understand that. That's what I was writing, and that's what I wrote in 2018. So, you know, it's a very dynamic situation. It is scary.

It kind of went too far one way, and now in developing countries that I write about, it's scary. Sometimes there's payback too much in the other direction. I write about countries like Iraq. It's like the Sunnis, you know, suppressed terrorism.

And I wrote about that, I predicted the sad outcome, I got it right, I was like, you know what, that majority, that long oppressed resentful majority might use their new political power for payback and retaliation, so it remains very tricky.

There was a time, it's hard to actually imagine now because we're in a very different phase, but you could just trash white people. That was like the one group that you wouldn't get in trouble. JD talked about this, too, that you could say anything about them, make fun of hillbillies, and also the one group that was not allowed to take pride in themselves, because that would be white supremacy.
