Yeah.

How do you feel about the change in attitude that I'm sure you've also experienced as well in the Western world as far as Palestinian advocacy, as far as the awareness?

Because I remember like 10 years ago, the calls were for any recognition whatsoever for Palestinians, whereas now I think there has been a dramatic sea change.

Where in the Western world, even, there are plenty of young people who are completely aware of it.

And I feel like a decade ago, you would get punished endlessly in the Western world for even saying free Palestine.

Either people didn't know what it was, or those who did know what it was immediately were like, you're an anti-Semite, you can't speak on this issue at all, and you would get deplatformed.

Mm-hmm.

Now that attitude is changing.

Does that give you any hope?

Yeah, no, absolutely.

I think that's that's something that I stress to my audience as well, which is like there's real fear when you go out and you protest and you get arrested.

There's real fear about, you know, getting deplatformed, losing your job.

But all of that is, I think, inconsequential in comparison to the atrocities that are unfolding that we have to let other people know about and to demand changeover.

This is why I sometimes bring it up, but only when asked about viewership numbers or whatever, when people left my community in the aftermath of October 7 because of my advocacy, I always stress that this is not...

That is nothing in comparison to the overall goal of engaging in steadfast advocacy for the Palestinians so that their deaths are not in vain.

So I hope people understand that, and I hope people keep pushing that as well, regardless of what the penalties are.

But we'll move into something a little bit more fun right here.

I want to show you someone.

Do you know I Show Speed?

Are you familiar with this guy?
