Can you talk a bit more about who is it supposed to motivate?

You talked some about politicians.

So what are some of the actions that politicians take being motivated by this type of narrative?

Yeah.

And some of it we discussed, right, they're trying to cover up really the failed policies, right?

The policies that have failed over the latter end of the 20th century as, right, the rest of the world caught up to the United States.

And our policies have failed, right, to, I think, right, respond in any ways, create the economy that everyone likes to think back to.

That's what America was great in the 50s and 60s, supposedly, I hear.

I mean, my dad talked to me about...

being afraid of nuclear annihilation.

So the 60s and 70s, it sounds so great to me.

And I've got the tail end of the Cold War.

But anyways, you know, that's what people are pushing back against, right?

That things used to be so phenomenal until we had all these immigrants.

And now, so that aspect of motivation, this cohesive ideas that are trying to motivate action, part of it's to blame, but what are the specific actions they're doing then?

Yeah.

I agree.

I think I figure I find myself.

I just wrapped it.

We just wrapped up our semester here.
