What other physical space is there to go to?
It is the temple of the wealthy.
It is the mechanism, the tool, the machinery of the wealthy.
It is the way that the rich elite tech kind of political connected billionaires that we're obviously all attached to are taking from the poor, getting themselves ahead, shooting themselves to space.
leaving everyone else behind.
And the data center, I think, is the representation of their progress.
And it is a representation of the progress that others don't feel.
So that's why I think it is physically like the manifestation that people want to attack and destroy.
There's very little rationale about, oh, let's stop AI robots from killing us.
I think people just don't see the value in AI.
The average person doesn't see the value in AI today yet.
Like we just talked about, so much of the value of AI is showing up in the enterprise and in the rebuilding of enterprises.
But for a consumer's life to actually be altered in a meaningfully positive way, most people don't feel that yet.
The best thing they see is some medical advice they're getting on chat GPT or something.
And that's kind of the end of it for them.
So I think there's a lot of this populism that's swollen and that's taken over not just the U.S., but probably a good chunk of the West.
And the data center is the target.
To David's point, they'll probably ban data centers in 30 states.
Data centers can output and input at the speed of light, so they can be anywhere.
I mean, you know, the reason you put data centers in different states is cheap power, low latency.
