If some of that news that you're getting in these traditional venues is fake, it is dangerous. If any of it is clickbaity, if any of it is deceptive. I could not agree with you more. It's fucking dangerous. Especially because we have a president who attacks the presses in the end. Remember, let's not forget the context we're operating in. Yes. You know, we have Trump calling us the enemy of the people. So crazy. Like, the lack of understanding of how important he is is. And he's driven some people insane. Yeah. For sure. They were easy to drive insane though. Let's be honest. There's a lot of dummies out there. That's part of the problem. It's just so easy to prod a certain group and they're like, I'm going to do something about this. This is the danger. This is what you have to worry about. The people that they, and again, they're signaling too. They're signaling to the far right. They're signaling to those people. I know a lot of people like that.
