Yeah.

That's dehumanizing. To me saying like there's no rape then is like dehumanization.

There's a lot of shit that happened. That was front page of the New York Times. Yeah. There's a lot of shit that happens in the Fog of War that people want to know the answer right away. I know it's hard, but you have to wait sometimes. Like the Fog of War, you're not going to always have the answer right away.

I mean, I'm not saying Israel isn't culpable of a lot of things, but you do have to wait. I see people sharing information that's not verified all the time that just came out where you're like, you don't- Well, that's the hospital bombing.

Exactly. I mean, I think like Netanyahu created a coalition with some really awful people like Smotrick and Ben-Gavir. There are like- really Jewish supremacists, real thugs. And I think a lot of anti-Zionists have tried to convince everyone that all of Israel is like that.

And I just think, yeah, there needs to be less dehumanization and just seeing like, yeah, the suffering in Gaza is horrible, it needs to stop, but also like, Not every Israeli is part of some evil Zionist whatever conspiracy. That's its own inverted form of anti-Semitism.

Yeah. And he's corrupt and he has charges against him that he's trying to, like, weaken the government to prevent from coming through. And he made a coalition with two people who are truly awful, awful people. And that... And that is really almost, these people want a theocracy in Israel. But that's not all of Israel. People have protested against that.

I mean, that's a legitimate fear. It's a legitimate fear. I don't even know if that's anxiety.

Yeah, we had 20 good years, and now we think everything— We had some good time in the 80s, and now we're like, yeah, it can never go back.

It is like most periods of history, people had kind of a shitty life and a volatile period of history. We really like... Up to like, I guess... After Vietnam and maybe to now, until everything's kind of falling apart now, it was kind of smooth sailing, I guess, for a little bit.

Yeah, it's not smooth sailing. People are like, the 90s were great. Rwanda, it was not smooth sailing.

Well, that's the other thing. Yeah, it's always shitty for someone.

Well, that's the thing. Life was so cheap, and now we feel like life is kind of expensive. Now we're like life has... value, you know? But it's still so cheap for so many people.

But we're seeing a lot of violence. I mean, we see every... The guy who shot Trump, you see his head exploded on the roof. You see everything. What do you even think that was all about? A guy trying to shoot Trump.

No.

I read a little, yeah. You need to read more.

Here's the thing with Trump, though. Why would he need... So you thought Biden was trying to take him out?

Well, my thing with a lot of conspiracy theories is it just kind of ignores incompetence. I feel like incompetence is a real thing.

I don't dismiss, and I didn't mean to offend. No, you didn't offend. No, no, no. I don't dismiss, there's a huge amount of corruption and horrible things. I just think, A lot of times incompetence does play a big part. And I do think there is incompetence and there's randomness a lot.

That's why you're like, lone shooter, betrayed by the military.
