So someone said, I strongly disagree with Hasan, and I understand your point and mostly agree with you.
Underlining the problem does not get solved, though.
It is so hard to reach people in those communities because of their bias.
So I'm glad that you shared your opinion in what I think is a productive and dialogue-forward way.
And I'm not saying it's hard.
I also think it's very hard.
I think if it was easy, the world wouldn't be going to hell in the way that it is right now.
And also just because it's hard doesn't mean that we shouldn't try.
So I think it's a huge problem.
I think it's a problem that humanity has never solved before.
And I think it's going to take a lot of mistakes in order to solve it.
Let me find, I'm going to pull up a couple of papers, chat.
There are a lot of people who have anxiety.
And for many of these people, this anxiety gets way worse at night.
So this is like my favorite example of this, where it's like, okay, when you're awake, you kind of push down the anxiety, you suppress it.
It's like you manage to survive and distract yourself through the day.
But then when you lay down, the anxiety spreads and now it's in your brain and it causes you problems.
