And Brett, I think that's what you're getting at, which is,
It's this don't look up moment.
If you all know the movie with the asteroid coming down to hit the earth and everybody's so caught up on their phones and devices and what crazy thing is happening here and crazy thing there that by the time people look up and there's the don't
look up, you know, movements and like, let's don't look up.
And there's like concerts about it.
The thing is about to destroy everything.
And so the consequences are the consequences.
And it's a real thing.
And the tangible hurt and the pain people in the United States are suffering.
It's not words.
It's not a talking point to say people can't afford things that people can't afford homes or their rent or gas or healthcare, or it's getting ripped away.
it's not just words or a talking point that people are dying because they can't go see a doctor because they can't afford it like these are real things that are happening and there is this detachment in this digital age and craze where
We don't recognize a reality that's happening, or we just kind of move on.
And it's treated as, I don't know, just this kind of similar Acra, this simulation.
It's like this is a real life.
This is really happening.
There's real human suffering.
And if you don't empathize with what's happening in the people and that these are life and death, war and peace issues, then that's kind of how you
you get in this position.
And so that's why so much I hate to feel like I'm preaching on this network.
