They were hardcore in their demand for democracy and free speech. Our establishment forgot it. They turned on their own people. They became swept up in their power, their narcissism, their elitism, their nihilism. And I mean, I love this. I mean, I'm in a great mood. I mean, I mean, this is, by the way, I also want to say we're headed to ARC. We have seen the complete collapse.

destruction of the World Economic Forum. It has no legitimacy. It's embarrassing for world leaders to go there. It's run by a cartoon character villain, a character who's literally in Joe Rogan's toilet. Like you go to do a Joe Rogan podcast, he's in the toilet. That's how seriously In the pop culture, he is a ridiculous villain.

World Economic Forum, because I know you founded ARC in part, I'm sure you had a lot of motivations, but certainly in part as a counterweight to world. You're not the counterweight. ARC is not the counterweight anymore.

ARC is the main event for intellectual life in the West oriented around a continuation and, first of all, a celebration of human specialness, a continuation of Western civilization as the best and only way to to help all humans achieve their internal potential. It's this, I mean, so for me, what a year for ARK.

It's a new media ecosystem. You get elected in different ways. It's social media and podcasting.

You have to be able to sit. In 1960, you had to be able to be handsome on television. That's what the television revolution was about. The podcasting revolution is you must be able to sit for three hours with Joe Rogan and answer questions. And if you are unable to do that, as Kamala Harris was, you can't be president. OK, so you've got to have some intellectual fortitude and stamina.
