Yeah, the demonization thing that Michael was just talking about, I think we need to really consider and take it seriously.
I think people have kind of β they've joked about β it's starting to turn because of Luigi Mangione, because of a number of attempts on Trump's life, and of course because of Charlie's assassination.
But I think β I don't know why it hasn't gotten more attention that there have been multiple attempts on Sam Altman's life.
Like the AI phenomenon is now creating and the demonization of billionaires that Bernie Sanders talks about that is echoed by so many, not just on the DSA left, but just on the left generally.
That's going to create a climate in which these people, they're not going to be able to live and work and have the kind of roles as captains of industry that they've had in the past without having the fear of,

Also, think about the excuse that we're hearing from the left and from Democrats, and I guess from SPLC themselves, which is that they weren't, no, this was not them funding the organizations in some sort of cynical attempt to prop up these organizations so they could fundraise off of them and then also use them as a pretext to crack down on conservatives.
That's not what they were doing.
They were paying for informants, they claim, to go in and investigate these hate groups and
And even if we were to accept that excuse, which I don't because it's BS, but even if we did, well, that just speaks to the degree to which these left-wing activist groups essentially function as these quasi-government agencies.
Because even if they were doing that,
