You're not actually making an impact.
You're not reaching anybody who doesn't already think the way you do.
They're coming to get daily validation of their pre-existing views.
And there are a lot of rewards in independent media for people who are willing to do that.
That's, in fact, what most successes and huge numbers of people have gotten very rich from Rachel Maddow and Heather Cox Richardson and those Lincoln Project scumbags on down.
to just adopting the most extremist anti-Trump view over the last decade.
I'm not saying that's what motivates him, but he's certainly one of the people who has benefited greatly in a very material way from kind of adopting that very partisan way of looking at the world.
And I think those are corrupting incentives, even if you're not a corrupt person.
Like, we're just human.
We get that positive reinforcement, that daily dose of
Dopamine from people telling us how great we are, from having our audience numbers increase, and we think we're doing something really important and big.
And that can subconsciously affect how we claim that we understand the world.
So this idea that... Trump was with the military dictator of Egypt, General Sisi, today.
And also at the same time, Ben Shapiro is talking about our Arab...
Persian Gulf allies and partners who are the worst despots and tyrants on the planet, the Saudis and the Emiratis, etc.
So that whole pretense that Ben Shapiro cares so deeply about the freedom and civil liberties and welfare of the Iranian people and cares that also, you know, I don't know if Ben Shapiro knows this, but
In World War II, the United States was allied with Joseph Stalin, who actually killed huge numbers of people, far, far, far, far, far more than the Iranians ever thought about killing.
And President Roosevelt and then afterwards, Henry Truman sat down with Joseph Stalin, along with Winston Churchill, in order to create peace deals and create the Nuremberg trials.
I mean, if J.D.
Vance would meet with Iranian officials, that's not even close.
