And so we need to start pointing up before there's no one left around.

unites and has a kind of fellowship to it it's interesting question i think and this is a slightly different answer to the question you posed but like i think there's a sustainability question with it like there's this kind of friction of you know how quickly incumbents not just america all over the world are turning over because you can ride this populist wave but then then what

I think we need a populism that's actually, I guess, to play to the crowd, like married to a bit of an abundance.

You simultaneously need to restore another word for the kind of unity I think is a restoration of faith in government.

I think that contributes to a dividing factor and kind of this baked in cynicism that's divisive.

Populism can be hopeful if you marry it with an abundance-esque approach of the deep belief that government needs to work.

Sort of the Zoran Mamdani approach.

Yes.

I don't think it's a credible claim that we're going to take back all this power and all this fortune from the billionaire class or from the oligarchy if we can't even build 100 homes.

And marrying those things together, I think, begins to tell a story of a populism that's hopeful because it's like you can believe in it.

It's tangible in your life.

And it's a reorientation of power.

And it's all of those things combined.

And I think we need more of that.

It frustrates me when we get into these debates over, you can believe in antitrust policy or you can believe in abundance.

I've also found those debates frustrating.

I think we can massively cut red tape that makes people's lives more difficult and we can impose new regulations that protect people from predatory actions.

Also, I think there are a lot of people who are doing a compelling job of this

in raising the finger from pointing to your neighbor to pointing towards the powerful, there can be a story of unity and of hope and of love.

Like I think about, you know, I can't, I did not come up with this.
