What Now? with Trevor Noah · Cory Doctorow: You Bought it, They Break It · 9 Jul 2026 podcast

Okay, okay.

And that from that point, we may be able to take the next step.

And we don't know how far up the hill we can get.

We can't see our way from A to Z. I'm a novelist.

So when I write, I can give you a clear, clean path with a steadily rising curve of dramatic tension and payoffs and stakes that get to a climax and then Princess Leia gives everyone a medal.

That's how it works in fiction.

But in the real world, it's messy.

You go up two steps.

You go down one because you've reached a dead end.

You do a traversal.

You go up again.

You get stuck there for a while.

Then you find your way up again.

But so long as there's a move you can make, there's always more hope.

And the moves we can make now, weirdly, thanks to Comrade Trump, who appears to be doing praxis, the moves we can do now are much more aggressive than

than any of the moves you had available to us forever.

That's fascinating.

And so I'm full of hope.

I'm not a happy person.

I'm not an optimistic person.
