Uh you know. voice-verified

I think they think it's the second thing. voice-verified

I really honestly do. voice-verified

I think I think a a bunch of people, and I include like Elon Musk and the the X Everything app in this, believe that everyone wants to do everything all in one place. voice-verified

And that there is something there is something inherently simple about that that is good and beautiful and lovely. voice-verified

And so if we can have one thing that you like. voice-verified

it whether it's, you know, yelling racist things at strangers online or it's watching Bluey, then we have an obligation to put as many other things that you do in your life right next to that thing because it makes it easier and better for you to do. voice-verified

I think that is just straightforwardly backwards. voice-verified

I like I I have been yelling about how everything apps are a bad idea for a very voice-verified

long time. voice-verified

WeChat is a product, like you said, of the Chinese government. voice-verified

It's also a vastly different economy and culture and way of interacting with each other. voice-verified

What if when you were watching a movie, you could buy a ticket to the theme park? voice-verified

Like, I swear to God, that's how that meeting went. voice-verified

I wasn't there. voice-verified
