There's another thing I just realized that we should add on top of that.

Western people, if they lived in the circumstances that people live in Afghanistan in, also wouldn't act like Western people act today living in a flat in Mayfair.

That's another aspect of it, which is when you're confronted by real hardship, for example, your mentality has to change and either changes because you want to survive or it changes because you die, right?

So all the people that are refused to adapt, they die off.

And then what you're left with is the people who actually now have to survive in a difficult environment.

And therefore they're much more connected to the reality of the world, you know?

It's a nice neutral statement.

And that is how people in the rest of the world think, by the way.

You know, it's so funny.

The entire conversation we're having, I just had a flashback.

When I was in my early 20s, I was living in a flat share with a girl.

And one day her dad came around and I remember him talking to me and he was telling me the story about the fact that there was a, we were talking about immigration.

And he told me the story about how he used to work with this Afghan guy.

I think he was from Afghanistan, somewhere like that.

uh who used to say to him directly he used to say you br you know you're british you're gullible you're easy to take advantage of and he said the the father of the girl i was living with he said and i said to him well if you feel that way then you know if you if you don't if you if that's how you treat us you should leave and his daughter said dad dad let's not talk like that here

And I think that's the entire thing in that one conversation.

This is how I think.

The dad, and I remember saying to her, I agree with your dad.

I'm an immigrant.

I agree with your dad because he's right.
