And I started to realize I really wanted to be raised with the values that my parents raised me with.
a gratitude for being American, an appreciation of capitalism, all these sort of basic American values.
And I had strayed so far from that.
And I think having my first son in 2022, it made me kind of take stock of what are my values and what am I passing on to my son?
And I don't, do I want him to be raised to be like some crazy leftist?
Like, no, it's actually a really destructive mindset.

Yes, my parents did.
