Deciding what you're gonna be a part of and not be a part of to me is like what it's kind of all about.
And I think...
I've been amazed at the degree to which people I know don't think about like, hey, is this a good person?
Do I agree with them?
And not just agree with them, but like, are they a bad actor or, you know, someone at least operating from good faith, whatever.
And they just think about like, how's this gonna do?
You know?
And like,
To me, success and a platform comes with responsibilities.
Not just like, hey, how do you look yourself in the mirror?
But like people are,
if they see you have someone on or they see you writing about something or talking about something, like they assume that it's not a co-sign, but you're, you're, you're, you're participating, right?
You're like, you're, they go, oh, they wouldn't have this person on if they were a psychopath or a lot, like people, like, I just think there's a responsibility that comes from having a platform or having influence and... It's a huge responsibility.
Yeah.
Yeah, there was, I remember finding when I was writing Trust Me, I'm Lying, there was some, and it's funny, none of this stuff is new.
There was this media critic and he was writing in like the late 1800s, early 1900s.
And he says, you know, America is a country ruled by public opinion.
That's what a democracy is.
And he says, therefore, what determines public opinion rules America.
And so the people that own newspapers, yeah, sure, it's a for-profit business, but like they are responsible for something that in a way affects like the whole country and that there has to be a response.
