So there's a word there, academic, whatever, where you take something and you put it in school too much and then it comes out as some Frankenstein, you know, cancer baby of like horrible things such that today when I'm reading stuff, and I know Ben is the same way, like if I even hear somebody say the word like anti-racism, I'm probably ignoring every other thing you have to say.

If you utter the word like colonial anything, I'm probably going to say you probably don't have anything good to say. Yeah, a lot of it is just taken way too far. But you know what I will blame on some of this is I will blame conservatives for some of this.

Because I think one issue that happens, and I think Ben might even agree with me here too, is I think there's two huge problems that have happened in the United States, I think, broadly speaking, is that one, we become more different than we ever have been.
