He's a great guy who worked in the Biden White House.
He and I have known each other since we were nine years old.
We went to the same elementary school.
We played Dungeons and Dragons together.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
What happened?
It's the last scene of that incredible documentary Animal Farm where you look from the pigs to the men and the men to the pigs and you can't see the difference.
So, you know, I think it's related to this point that I was making about how we're seeing this surge of antitrust.
Like I said, in Europe, in Japan and Korea, they went after Apple.
And Singapore, I forget what the case was, Australia was about Facebook and Google and the news companies, but also in China where they said to the big tech companies in China, you can't block little companies from interoperating with you so that they can enter the market.
And I think that...
It is remarkable that we've had this surge of antitrust stuff, because as you say, these people are currently like they're definitely in the stage in life where they don't see any reason why this death match should be stopped.
Because they're winning.
And.
There is this like incredible current in the air where people are just sick of this, right?
They're just like really angry.
As you said, people are, they don't know why, but they're really angry.
And we sometimes talk about like political will and it's hard to know what a political will is, but I think it's like the wind where you don't see it until something gets in the way.
And so what we've seen is like anytime a politician sticks their head up and goes, maybe we should do something about concentrated corporate wealth.
