And so that's where I think it can get a bit crossed and we can be sold these lies that are basically impossible for
everybody in society to achieve.
And understandably, people get angry.
And if you're angry, and if you feel entitled, and if you're in this group where everyone else is thinking the same way as you, yeah, that can make you dangerous.
