But there was also this huge gulf of people who didn't fall in the MAGA category, who didn't fall in the watching it on MSNBC category, who were also just like, I'm just trying to live my life. I'm barraged with information all the time. And I, you know, didn't really pay attention to it.

In this world where we have this justification machine just constantly humming, where there's a barrage of evidence, it's really hard for the Democrats, say, to make the 2020 election a battle for the soul of the nation. It pins the hopes on something like January 6th being resonant four years later. And I think the way that information moves, the way these ecosystems move, it's not as resonant

Yeah, there's certainly an asymmetry between the mega coalition and what's going on. But it happens everywhere. And I think that it's like, we can't think of it as just like... We have to understand that this is what the media ecosystem is doing, whether we want to be that type of media consumer or not, and have less judgment about it happening when it's happening in good faith.

I'll see this all the time. A very small example of this in my own life is... I'll see a piece of news pop up on social media in some way. And it's not that I'm trying to like find a way to immediately discredit it. But if it's like kind of shocking to me, I'll be like, does this person, you know, know what they're talking about?
