That was the whole thing, you know?

And those people produce ideologies that...

On the surface, we're all about like, you know, order and like organic community and such.

But when it came down to brass tacks, we're just elaborate justifications for dominating other people in the most disgusting and exploitative ways.

And I see the same exact patterns with these modern day neo-Nazis and neo-Nazi sympathizers and all of these people.

It's the same thing.

They – there's a direct line from disparaging, right, the Declaration of Independence, which our vice president has done, and engaging in apology for really awful behavior and really awful conduct and really awful ways of relating to people.

It's a very, very, very smooth transition.

I love that transition.

That was pro right there.

Work with me, people.

That was pro.

I have a movie, so listeners, viewers may know that I buy lots of physical media.

I have a big Blu-ray collection, and recently, a couple months ago, I bought a new release of the 1992 film Sneakers, directed by Phil Alden Robinson and starring, this is kind of the most stacked cast you can imagine, starring Sidney Poitier, Robert Redford,

Dan Aykroyd, Mary MacDonald, River Phoenix, and David Strathairn.

It's about two former kind of like hackers who all go separate ways and they get embroiled into a grand conspiracy.

It's kind of an obscure movie, you know, rarely makes it onto lists of things to see from the 90s.

But I think it's like if you could imagine the movie version of a big warm bowl of chicken soup,

This is what this movie is.

It's so fun and comforting, and I highly recommend checking it out.
