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.
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...
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.
Like, I'm Jewish.
Like, there's no Nazism occurring in this country.
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.
Like, it's just insane.
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.
Of course.
And, yeah, and I just find that to be kind of like...
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
Like misinformation, which has become sort of a heated word because misinformation is now used to represent information that I don't like.
