I've maybe lost some acquaintances over the past couple of years, certainly.

And I've definitely lost some followers.

Like, when I endorsed...

voting for Trump in the last election, I lost about 40,000 followers on Instagram.

Culture Apothecary with Alex Clark
Prevent Alzheimer’s & Dementia Before It Starts | Max Lugavere

Yeah, I went from 1.2 million followers to 1.1.

First of all, we live in a democratic society, so nobody should penalize anybody for having a vote.

And...

Culture Apothecary with Alex Clark

like having a perspective.

I find it to be really offensive also as a Jewish person, like the rhetoric, particularly that had reached seemingly a fevered pitch during the election that pointed at anybody who would vote for Trump as being pro-fascist or even Nazi.

Culture Apothecary with Alex Clark

It's like actually quite anti-Semitic to compare anything occurring in the United States

to what was happening in Nazi Germany in the 40s.

Culture Apothecary with Alex Clark

Well, also, like, I voted for, you know, Obama, and Obama deported lots of... He gave Tom Holman a gold medal for his deportations.

It's not necessarily even about what's going on, but who's in charge.

Culture Apothecary with Alex Clark
Prevent Alzheimer’s & Dementia Before It Starts | Max Lugavere

Of course.

Culture Apothecary with Alex Clark
Prevent Alzheimer’s & Dementia Before It Starts | Max Lugavere

And, yeah, and I just find that to be kind of like...

Culture Apothecary with Alex Clark
Prevent Alzheimer’s & Dementia Before It Starts | Max Lugavere

not right you know i don't know like i don't have a better way of saying i don't i find it to be not right the same way that i don't like rhetoric you know surrounding like red meat and the continual fear-mongering of red meat which now with the you know the the new dietary guidelines i think a lot of that hopefully is behind us but um but yeah i don't like rhetoric i don't like

Culture Apothecary with Alex Clark

Like misinformation, which has become sort of a heated word because misinformation is now used to represent information that I don't like.
