It didn't matter what their political leaning was. Like if they were really engaged with media, they were shocked by not just the outcome, but the fact that Trump won all the swing states, that he won the popular vote, all of these things. The people I know, a lot of them are doctors and engineers and stuff who follow the news, but don't give a shit at all about the narrative.

Like when they look at the New York Times website, they do not look at the right side of the page. They look at the left side of the page. They all were like one, two, three. Like they weren't surprised at all.

And I now sort of have the creeping suspicion that engagement with media distances us from reality, that the more information I get, the more information I take in, the less I understand the world. And I don't know what to do about that, because that's a real issue, if that is true. And that's how it feels for me now. It feels like that, that the that.

Meine Vorstellung von dem, was die Welt ist, ist so geformt von diesen Dingen, dass ich nicht mal so nahe bin, was eigentlich passiert ist.

I mean, isn't that a little bit of reverse engineering, though? I think that's what every election is. Well, it probably is. And if that's true, then we have a bunch of things to rethink. Because in a sense, it kind of looked like, well, Oprah, Taylor Swift, all these people, they endorsed Harris. Nobody cared. Didn't seem to have any influence.

But you just said that you think that Tim going on Rogan was one of the biggest things, like Rogans endorsement mattered. It only because it worked out that way. I don't think any of these endorsements mattered. I now think that basically any Republican candidate would have won this election. I think that if Nikki Haley would have ran, I think she would have won probably by a very similar margin.

I think that there is the sense now that there's all this news going around kind of shifting these stories. Like you say, these stories like, oh, there's, you know, people are canvassing and women are closing the door saying, I'm secretly voting for Harris, I'm not voting for my husband.

Now it kind of looks like maybe the opposite of this was the case, that people were saying they were going to vote for Harris because they didn't want to be maybe judged or have an issue with their friends who they thought were like it was actually they were saying the opposite of what this supposed sort of trend, you know, because hours before the election, you could go on social media and there were people saying things like, what if I told you this isn't going to be close at all?
