Yeah. Yeah. Well, that can happen, especially when the underlying concepts are as ridiculous as they are. People will then use and it was you're right. It was very funny because you literally had people writing articles in The Guardian about why they're woke. And then like six months later saying, oh, well, these right wing people are calling us woke.

I can't remember who said this, but there's this very famous line that things that can't last forever won't. If something can't go on forever, it won't. And so when we look at the direction of Western society over the last 10, 15 years, we talked about it in the UK, we've talked about it in Europe, and to some extent in the United States, unless Trump really is able to turn it around.

If you run very high levels of debt,

If you run very high levels of debt,

If you run very high levels of debt,

if you have high levels of crime, if you have high levels of illegal and legal immigration that fundamentally change the values and culture of a country, if you refuse to prioritize the citizens of your own country and say, we want to take care of our people, if you refuse to pursue economic growth at the cost of other things, because that's what you have to do because everything is trade-off.

So if you want more economic growth, you might have less climate obsession or whatever. If you have a situation where young people can't advance, as we've talked about, if we have a situation where large communities of people don't have access to meaningful work, on and on and on. If that goes on for a period of time, I know from my Soviet experience that societies don't always last forever.

And then if you actually look at history, you know that no society lasted forever. ever. So when things are bad and continually so and keep getting worse and this is maintained over a period of time and on top of that you're told actually this is the right way to go, it's not unreasonable in that situation to say, well, If we carry on going in this direction, this is going to end badly.

Now, at the same time, people like me who make this point often get accused of like scaremongering, whatever, you know, and it's true. Like, I remember in the 90s when I was talking to my dad about my job prospects, he was like, look, Definitely don't be a lawyer because on current trends by the year 2000, everyone in the world is going to be a lawyer.

Now, surprise, surprise, not everyone in the world is a lawyer. And so societies do change track over time and people change track over time. But it's the job I feel of people like me who've had that experience of knowing that society doesn't last forever to remind people that like it's all our civilization is, is like a big Jenga block. Like you can pull some out and it will stay standing.
