That people aren't real?

Just kidding.

Just kidding.

I mean, I'm not real.

I'm a I'm a lizard in like a Jewish body or I don't even know what the correct theory is.

Sorry.

Keep going.

Sorry.

Which is what these people are so good at is identifying like the real feelings that people have, especially towards politics, inequality, censorship, capitalism, stuff like that.

And instead of offering them substantive, community oriented, positive solutions, they just fill that void with bullshit, which is, by the way, like the entire premise of Doppelganger by Naomi Klein.

Which is so good.

So should we get into the life of Candace Owens and try to make sense of where we are?

Well, it all starts in this state where I am podcasting from right now.

In New York, Candace Owens is born in the town of White Plains, but grows up in Stamford, Connecticut, which is a suburb 30-something miles outside of New York City.

Is there anything notable about where she grew up in Connecticut?

Because it's like right next to where you grew up in Connecticut.

Her parents divorced when she was eight and she was raised by her mom and her grandparents.

When her parents were still together, Candace says that her dad worked two jobs and her mom did not work.

And she said in like wildly archived old interview footage that guys, I went deep for this one, but she said in these interviews that this time before she turned eight, when her parents were still together was the happiest time of her life because Candace

she had time at home with her parents.
