We're not supposed to do anything alone. We're not supposed to be doing anything alone. And that's honestly the most optimistic thing about your podcast, is that Martian society develops this very communal, because it's We're living in like an artificial habitat. And if shit goes really wrong, everyone dies at once.

You have to have this more collaborative, collective attitude towards safety and security that is just so completely absent from American culture. It's the thing that continually sends me into the darkest spirals is because there's no fixing the fundamental underlying problems without fixing that. Yeah.

And it's something that we've been pulled away from purposefully, right? Like the atomization isn't just a byproduct of incentives, right? Like it is a directed move. I mean, you just got to look back to some of the shit Thatcher was saying, right? There's no such thing as a society. There are men and women and there are families, right? This is a directed change.

And I'm not saying this in like the conspiratorial sense. I'm saying this at a, this is what a lot of people, a lot of the worst people in our society believe because it's convenient for them. And they have pushed to make that belief more common and done so by funding think tanks and funding media organizations in part. Right.

I think the key thing is here is that we see throughout time, like, really extreme societies that try to mold people in certain ways with the idea of permanently changing them. And what happens in the past, at least to every one of those societies, is that the society dies and people go on being people, right? Mm-hmm. Yeah. Yeah.

You can make things better in some ways, but there's certain stuff that you're just never going to like, when I look at, when I look at what the white supremacists want to do, right? Well, you're never going to get people to stop mingling with other kinds of people. You simply can't, it's never worked and it never will. Right. Like that. That's an impossible dream.
