Attention. You're listening to the top Huff radio show, America's home for conservative not bitter talk radio. Be advised. The content of this program has been documented to prevents and even cure liberalism, and listening may cause you to lean to the rights. Here's your Conservative but Not Bitter host, Todd Huff. Well, Greeting's, my friends, and welcome to today's episode of The Todd
Huff Show. It's a pleasure to be here. You know the routine thoughts, questions, feedback, adoration and praise that can all be sent to our email address to my personal email, Todd at Todd huffshow dot com. You can also text this three one seven two one zero twenty eight eight thirty. You know, I want to start. I'm hesitant to do this because this is not what we normally do. But I mentioned this at the end of
yesterday's program. I mentioned this at the end of yesterday's program, and I just came across some things as I was preparing for today's show, and I don't know, I just it's interesting to me. I think that there's some nuggets of spinoff discussions and topics that go along with this, and so I want to launch into this today and I want to talk I want to talk about well, let me read you two headlines. The first this is mind
boggling by the way Taylor Swift. Taylor Swift. You know, if you listed the things that I never thought I would be talking about on here, this might be up there. But Taylor Swift has generated three hundred thirty one million dollars in the enhanced brand value of the NFL since she first attended a football game by well, between Kansas City and whoever they played back then. It's actually three hundred and thirty one and a half million. I love that
they tack the half million dollars on there. So this is like a super precise analysis here. But nonetheless, three hundred and thirty one and one half million dollars of brand value enhanced value of the NFL brand brand and it is and the Chiefs. So I don't know if the NFL gets all of that, the chief gets some of it. I don't know the breakdown here,
but this is remarkable in and of itself. So since she first started going to games in September of last year to see her apparently her boyfriend Travis Kelsey of the Chiefs three hundred and thirty one dollars three hundred and thirty one and one half million dollars a brand value added to the NFL and to the Chiefs, which is remarkable. And in addition to that, I want to I
have to reference this because I referenced this yesterday. Now this is I had I did not see this prior prior toy yesterday, and it may have been out there and I just hadn't seen it yet because the tweet day, well, it was right as we were as this uh well, the program was coming to an end. Vivek Ramaswami tweets goes to excuse me x whatever you call what do you call x'es? Are they? Are they still tweets? I don't even know, but he says this, Well, he's responding to
a tweet I guess from Jack Pasoviec. Think about the tweet from Jackson's thinking about when Taylor Swift called out the Soros family in tw twenty nineteen for buying the rights to her music and then how she came out a super liberal in twenty twenty. So vivek Ramaswami tweets out, I wonder who's going to win next the Super Bowl next month, and I wonder if there's a major presidential
endorsement coming from an artificially culturally propped up couple this fall. Just some wild speculation over here, Let's see how it ages over the next eight months. So there is a conspiracy theory out there, if you want to call it that conspiracy theory, This is the NFL is rigging this. And I know there's a lot of this, and I shared yesterday, I don't adhere to this belief. Now I know some of you do, and that's okay.
Now, do I think that the people running the NFL are left liberals at minimum and leftists at worst worst case scenario, So I do believe that. Do I believe that the NFL is happy to do whatever it can to prevent President Trump from winning re election. I think that that's true. I think and I've documented in saying that I think that the NFL, well, there's seven pillars of propaganda, and one of those pillars of propaganda. One of
those pillars are propaganda. This will be in the book that we're working on here, but one of the seven pillars of propaganda is entertainment, right, And so the theory goes. I don't even know that it's a theory. I think it's pretty well established that leftists run these pillars of society, these pillars being the media, these pillars being woke business, these pillars being the government meaning the bureaucratic state, these pillars being entertainment. And there's seven of
them, seven total. But in entertainments we have things like Hollywood. We have sports. You know, you've got the NHL, the NBA, the Major League Baseball, the NFL, You've got soccer. You've got Megan Rappino, You've got all these people. Right, You've got Travis Kelcey in the NFL. Now, Travis Kelcey, I mean, he's out there on the Pfizer ads. He's I don't know how political he gets. I don't follow him like that, but I do know how political Taylor Swift has gotten.
In fact, you may have remembered or you may have seen this years ago, back when I think it was in twenty I'm pausing here. It might have been twenty sixteen, it might have been twenty twenty. I'm not entirely sure. I can't remember if it was to support Hillary or to support Biden. But there's recordings of Taylor Swift getting into heated discussions with her father and maybe her agent too. I can't remember who I was. I was there,
but it's video. It's video recordings of basically her explaining just how dire the situation is politically in this country. You know, I cannot allow my fans to you know, not know the truth here, Dad, I have to stand out, stand up for what I believe in, which is women's rights and all this stuff. As though again it's a complete straw man, complete straw man to say that conservatives don't believe in women's rights. In fact, we're the only group of people that can define what a woman is.
But so she's out here on this rant about how the Democrats are there to protect women's rights and how Republicans are not, and she's outspoken. I think it's against Marcia Blackburn. She's talking about Congress and senators from the state of Tennessee, which is believe where her residence was at the time. You can look all this up. I didn't look at that. I've seen it in the past, but I didn't specifically give myself a refresher prior to today today's
program. I just wanted to just use this as a springboard for this discussion because I think it it's not It's not an either or proposition. It's not either the NFL is completely rigged and they are going to you know, do X, Y and Z through endorsing and Biden or whatever, or or you know, the games are fixed and that's the reality, or they're not in the NFL is not political. I think the NFL is political. But I also think you know, getting away, getting away with fixing games to the
level that some folks think this is happening. I don't know if some of these folks have have played. I've not played at that at that level. My last level was a college and just the speed at what the game is played, the game of inches, and I'll reference the game over the weekend with the let's see, it was the Chiefs, Chiefs and the Ravens.
That's right, Chiefs and the Ravens. You had some people, by the way saying the NFL had the script of the NFL was the Ravens versus the forty nine Ers, because the logo colors of Super Bowl fifty eight had the colors of the forty nine Ers and the colors of the Ravens. Therefore, the NFL was colluding to make that be the outcome, but that isn't what happened. So now you've had another group of people that say that they wanted the Chiefs in the forty nine ers. And I'm not saying the NFL doesn't.
I've said this before. I think the NFL wants to have the most well the game that would draw the most attention, and so certainly having the person, having the person Taylor Swift in attendance, which there's even uncertainty that she's going to be able to do that because she's in a a concert in
Japan on February eleventh. But for those of you that understand the international dateline and all of that, you know that she's gonna be I don't know exactly the amount of hours, but she's almost a full day ahead or three quarters of a day ahead of where the super Bowl is going to be played in Las Vegas, Nevada. It's a thirteen hour flight. Oh yes, and let the Swifties get ahold of that. Thirteen hours. That's her favorite number.
All this stuff, right, So people think, well, she can finish her concert, get in the jet of course, probably talk about climate change somewhere along the way as she's jetting around the world, but nonetheless fly from Japan to Las Vegas just in time for the Super Bowl. Now, the NFL would love that, right, the NFL would love that publicity. She's reaching a different demographic and the NFL is reaching the NFL. By the
way. By the way, I'm an old school NFL fan. I remember as a kid growing up in the nineteen eighty I was born the last day of seventy seven, forty six years old now, but got a body he's still have a forty five year old I'm telling you. But the NFL was I loved it. I loved football from an early age. I was a fan of the Raiders. They were the Los Angeles Raiders back then, Marcus Allen bo Jackson here in our city. When I was a kid, the
Colts were absolutely reprehensible. I mean, I think the highest we were thrilled if they got ten points in a game. It seemed like every game they played was nine to six, six to three, some absolutely boring snoozefest. But the Raiders were my team. Marcus Allen I liked him a lot and I'm an old school player. I liked the contact. When I was a kid growing up, they would show they would show some of the hits of the week, the most violent and brutal hits. Now they don't do any
of that. And look, I get it. I'm not here to say that there's nothing that should or could be done about the concussion and head injury and all that. But I'm saying the game has been watered down to the old school, traditional NFL fan, and it's been done for marketing reasons. It's been done for marketing reasons, and they basically, I think I think that the marketing professionals in the NFL have decided, Look, we think we can still keep a pretty healthy chunk of the traditional, you know, real
football fan and branch out right to branch out. And where do they branch out. They branch out internationally, and they branch out into the female demographic, and so it changes. It's changed a lot. So lo and behold, you've got Taylor Swift come onto the scene, dating one of the league's best players on one of the best teams. I mean, the Chiefs have been to what I think I heard, it's multiple I don't want to say it, it's multiple AFC championships can executively. They've been to I mean several
of the recent Super Bowls. I don't want to say the numbers because I'm not one hundred percent sure, but they're there. They are there consistently at the top. So you've got one of the best teams. She suddenly turns out to be dating Travis Kelsey, who suddenly coincidentally turns out to be one of the faces of political correctness with the Pfiser. You know, Aaron Rodgers called him mister Pfiser in some back and forth that they were having kind of
through Pat mcafear, what have you. But anyway, the point is, the point is this is a perfect scenario for the NFL. And she's brought in three hundred and thirty one and a half and a half. Don't forget that half million dollars in brand value reportedly supposedly and what is it since September, so that's October, November, December, January or almost so in less than five months, in less than five months, she's almost increased the value
of the NFL brand by half a billion dollars. I mean, it's it's mind boggling. Now, I can't say that that report is correct, but you can see why the NFL would care. But then you compare that to what would really have to happen to to fix games, to fix many games, to fix all the games, and some people think, some people think that every game is fixed. Again, these are great athletes, and they
they have gotten very good at their skills, my friends. But the idea, the idea that we can have close games on a regular basis that are separated by games of inches, and you have fumbles at the goal line that go out the end zone that are turnovers, You've got interceptions in the end zone. I mean, it's just way too way too many things going on for that. But that being said, it doesn't mean that the NFL doesn't want it, and it doesn't mean that the NF won't use it to further
their political ambitions as one of the seven pillars of propaganda. If the Chiefs are to win, can I see Travis Kelsey and Taylor Swift at the White House or some campaign event for Biden? You better believe I can. You better believe I can. And I think that that, But that doesn't mean the game is fixed. I can see them there if they finished as the Super Bowl runners up. I mean, they're in the game now, So I mean, whether you win or lose, it's a big deal if you
care about the game itself. But they've already got the stage. Taylor's gonna be there. Well, if she can make it and it fits her schedule, She's gonna show up. And that's that's where the value is. Win or lose, that's where the value is. That's where she's bringing in all these all of her fans, fans and by the way, if you look on social media, especially back when she started attending these games, I mean some of the these young young girls are like, you know, what is
I didn't know there was such a thing as football. Well, look at these guys running around hitting each other. You know, I'm going to buy a Travis Kelsey jersey. I'm a Chiefs fan now, right, And that's what's been happening. Of course, a traditional fan like me, thanks, what on earth is going on here? But that's again another discussion for another day. But I want to talk about this today because it ties into the
seven pillars of propaganda. It ties in to really I think what goes on in the minds well, I use that word loosely, the minds of a lot of voters. It's superficial politics. It is an electioneer. Anyway, I want to discuss that. I want to get to other things as well. But I find this stuff fascinating, especially since Ramaswami hinted at hinted at the possibility of there being something more nefarious going on here. So timeouts in order, my friends, sit tight. You are listening to the home of
conservative not bitter talk. Be advised, Be advised. This program can cause you to lean to the right, So exercise extreme caution driving a vehicle, operating heavy machinery, walking down the hallway. Heck, my friends, standing still, it's that powerful. Sit tight back here in just a minute.
Well, I'm back with my friends. Can't believe I'm saying that, But we're going to continue this discussion, this conversation about Taylor Swift, the super Bowl, conspiracy theories, pop culture, and of course how this all impacts or can impact politics. How these things actually do impact politics. Dare I say, in some circles, much more than the actual ideas that politicians embrace
and their worldviews and so forth. But for the break, we were talking about all of this kind of background with Taylor Swift, Jason Kelsey, the Super Bowl, the vek Ramaswami's what I say, I said, Jason oh Oz jump piped up for that. I complete slip of the ton Jason. For those that don't know, and I'm guessing many of you do, Travis Kelsey has an older brother named Jason, who it was rumored he was retiring, but he's not retiring now. He's the center offensivelignment for the Philadelphia Eagle.
So I said, Jason, by a mistake, it's not Jason, it's Travis Kelsey. So Taylor Swift, Travis kelcey. You know the value that the NFL has gotten from Taylor Swift showing up at these games, the Chiefs now being in the Super Bowl, How that can impact pop culture and well, how that can impact the culture and her fans, which is an astronomically large amount and an amazingly huge amount of people can be impacted by this.
You know. I I'm gonna tell a story here real quick. I wasn't even thinking this until just right now, but years ago, years ago, before I started maybe I think it was before I started this, or
maybe I had started the podcast. Taylor Swift used to be part of Big Machine Records in Nashville, Tennessee, and I had a contact that I knew there, and I also had a product that would work for trying to be careful here what I should say about this, but that would work for Taylor Swift people in that kind of you know, entertainment industry, music athletes maybe, or teams, you know, NFL teams, what have you NFL. By the way, the NFL called me about this from the for the other
business. Anyway, that's not the point. The point is. The point is that I took this to Nashville to my contact I was unable to meet with. His name was Scott. I can't think of do you remember the CEO of Big Machine Records Scott? And I'm drawing a blank. I can't think of his last name at the moment. So she takes it to her
boss. Her boss meets with Scott and they say Taylor would love this, but it was at the it was the end of her contract, so they decided not to not to share it with her until they got that all. You know, there were other irons in the fire, bigger deals. She did not. I think that's when she left a Big Machine. I cannot
I think think of Scott's last name to save my life. I know it was there one day when I ruled up because I saw his car, which I can't remember, you know, Lamborghini Ferrari something parked there in front of Music Row. I'd never been there before. Interesting experience. But anyway, so I mean with the impact the number of people that Taylor Swift touches around the world with her music. Scott Burshetta, thank you. Scott Burshetta is the CEO of Big Machine, and she had a big fight with him over
who owned the music and so forth. And that's this tweet that I reference in the first segment from Jack Besobiec that said he remembers the time when Taylor Swift caught out the Soros family for buying the rights to her music, and then she came out as a super liberal in twenty twenty. I would say Taylor Swift was liberal before that, but she didn't get involved as much in
politics when when she was younger. But this is how it works, right, I think this is where the narrative and the story and what's going to happen next is interesting to talk about, but taking a step back here is what we can really learn because when I talk about the seven pillars of propaganda, this is precisely what I mean. Now. I don't want to say that Taylor Swift controls the entertainment pillar of propaganda, but she has a big
chunk of influence over that. It's a huge chunk. In fact, there's nothing remotely comparable, no one remotely comparable to her regarding her influence. So if she decides and she has, by the way, if she decides to support Joseph Robin at Biden president bribery, and she tells her fans that and
she gives them some sup she I don't even think she needs. She doesn't even need to say anything, because again, look at the value her simply her presence, her physical presence at a Chiefs football game, for you know, a good chunk of the season added nearly well in the vicinity of a half billion dollars to the NFL's brand value in six months. According to reports,
it's three hundred and thirty one million. But it's a massive amount of money getting in the vicinity where you have to start talking in terms of almost a half a billion. And so that's just from showing up, that's from seeing her in the suite, hugging people, high fiving people. People are filming her the whole game, trying to read her lips. What is she saying? Why does she wear that? All of this kind of stuff right people? And I don't understand it. Well, I understand it, but
it doesn't resonate with me. I don't care. I don't care what Taylor Swift wears. I don't care what Taylor and it's not against her. In fact, when she was younger, I thought, you know, there's a lot to like about this this artist. I even knew. I even knew some of the songs when she was when she was younger. In fact, I was talking to my brother about that recently. He said, I don't even didn't even know. He told me he just heard his first Taylor Swift
song, and I said, no, it's not true. I remember distinctly talking with you about one of her songs, love Story. I remember this because I thought it was hilarious that we both knew the story of the song. Anyway, her impact and her reach is profound, and now you factor that into her political affiliations, and you look at who the people in her
target audience are, which involves people that are highly hell boy. We've all been young once, right, and as you grow up typically you I mean, this is I think even biblical right when I when I was a child, I did things in childish ways. But as I've matured, I put childish ways behind me. I mean, that's kind of the whole point of becoming an adult. It's not that we don't ever act childish in a way like just to have fun and goof off. It's that you know when to
do that, and you're not so absorbed with every single superficiality. And there's a lot of truth that a lot of young people and an older adults too, but I think it's more prevalent statistically that younger people and we all went through this. I'm not targeting the younger generation. I'm just saying that there's a phase where there's a highly superficial phase that most of us go through.
Some of us never grow out of, but we stay in it. We're all generally or many of us, most of us, a high percentage of us are in it in the young adult years, which is when or you know, teenage to maybe young adult time. And this is when Taylor Swift is these are the folks in her base right. And so you have someone with a massive amount of influence who's now a pop culture icon of sorts, endorsing or standing behind a president that the rest of us who look at things
objectively can see a guy that can't complete sentences. But yet she goes out there and she says, I'm for the Democrat Party because they're for women's rights, and she gets cheers at concerts. There's no other context, no other context. Who cares that were on the precipice of World War III? Who cares that Biden was accused of doing a lot worse with Tara Reid than Trump was accused of doing with what Egene Carol, I guess it doesn't. None
of that matters to anybody. None of that matters whatsoever. What matters is the sound bite. And it's powerful, and it's influential, not to you and me, maybe some out there that it might be. But it doesn't matter to us because either we understand that it's the issues and the ideas and the worldview fueling these things that matter. But to a huge chunk of the
population. It's about being in the right crowd, superficially right, or they fall for the hook, the hook women's rights or my body, my choice, or whatever. The bait of the day is. These things that are an inch deep and a mile wide. But if you have people that are listening to that and watching that that never dig than an inch deep, they won't know that it ends at an inch deep. They take it at face
value. They take the superficial, superficial of the particular issue or talking point of the day, the narrative of the day, and that's where they stay. That's where they go. Ever, listening to people say why they wouldn't vote for Trump because he's dangerous, he's insurrectionists and you asked him, we'll explain that. What do you mean? They can't You dig one or two
questions deep and there really is nothing there. There is manufactured tumult and chaos and fear that's been gender by the people running and operating the seven pillars of propaganda. So timeouts in order, my friends, set tight back here in just a minute. Welcome back to my friends. So we are again talking really about a lot of things. We're talking about the well as a springboard.
We use the narrative of the story about Taylor Swift and Travis Kelsey, Kansas City chief Super Bowl her value or excuse me, the value that she's helping bring to the NFL three hundred and thirty one and one half million dollars to their brand value since she first attended a Chiefs game back in September. And we then took this and we've applied what is a major problem, what we've discussed and unveiled what's a major problem in American politics today, and that's
the politics of superficiality. Now, to a certain extent, this has always been the case and it will continue to be the case amongst certain voters, amongst certain types of people. The culture fuels a lot of this. This is all this If you want to talk about what's by design, I would say this more than whether or not the Chiefs beat the forty nine ers. But the real effort is into controlling the culture, the way that people think.
The impact that these seven pillars of propaganda as I term them, the impact that they have on people, and people like Taylor Swift wield a lot of power, and I don't bemoan that I wish people would still be critical of the things that she is endorsing and saying, just like I would say the same thing about me. Go for it, double check it, think it through, Challenge me, right, I mean, maybe you'll teach me something, Maybe you can help enlighten me in an area that I've maybe not
completely got correct or whatever. You know. Socrates back back in his day said that the person that learned something was the winner. That's not how we look about it and look at it in today's culture. If you win the debate, you're the winner. If you lose the debate, you're the loser. You're the guy that's wrong and you need to hang your head in shame and be mocked or whatever. I don't know. I live in a different
lane than a lot of this pop culture stuff. Anyway, we'll talk more about that, but I want to tell you a little bit about our friends at Harvard Gold Group. If you listen to this program for any length of time, you know by now that gold has outperformed the S and P five hundred by well and the Dow since nineteen seventy one, when the US took the dollar off of the gold standard. Ask yourself is that a coincidence.
We've been talking about coincidences and conspiracies and all this stuff today, But is that a coincidence? When the US government allowed the people to own gold again and let that sink in a allowed people to own gold again, they reclassified gold as a command rather than a paper currency backstop. Even though the US itself still holds the highest amounts of physical gold in its reserve, All countries, all central banks, all major institutions, even guess the IMF itself,
the International Monetary Fund, all own substantial gold holdings. If all these folks and all these entities control paper fiat money, and yet they still have physical gold. If they have those things, if they have the gold, doesn't make sense for you to have it as well. So if you want to learn more about that, I invite you to visit Harvardgoldgroup dot com, Harvard

Friends, This is nothing new what we've been talking about today. This is the way that it has been You know, politicians and people who seek to well to win votes or even you know more nefariously seek to control societies, seek to obtain positions of power, to lord it over the
people, to enrich themselves. All these sorts of things, all the stuff that we see happening in Washington, d C. We have to remember that this is their chosen career path. It was never intended to be this way. It was never with the founders envisioned. In fact, the founders wanted people living their lives and then coming to sessions in Congress having come from reality, not from living inside of a bubble like we have in Washington, d
C. Today, a bubble that has no semblance in reality whatsoever. And of course we've got nonsense happening. I remember when I was in school there. I was only there for four months or something, four months of being in DC, and I remember just how out of touch with reality I felt. There's nothing reality based there. It's all political, it's all for it's
off for consumption. There's a lot of the real stuff that's happening is behind closed doors, as we found out with this border deal that looks like it's doa Hopefully it stays that way. By the way, there's a piece in the stack of stuff by Katie Pavlik who says, hey, here's five things Biden can do today without any Congressional vote whatsoever, and that could address illegal
immigration in the open border. Speaker Mike Johnson, I've got his tweet in the stack of stuff as well today that say, hey, here's sixty four times that Biden's policies have directly made the border situation worse in just a little over three years now. So that's all going on. That sort of stuff
happens behind closed doors, right. The pilot sees the deal making, the big guy stuff, all that, right, all that alleged stuff, but the the superficial cloak that they put all over that, that's what's for consumption and that's what Unfortunately, that is the depth, the greatest depth that some people will ever go into political matters. Well, I heard Taylor Swift say this at her concert or she had a Biden shirt on or Biden had on or whatever, or she said, my body, my choice, And that's
as much as someone understands about the issue of abortion. And that's unfortunate, and that's one of the reasons why we do This is to try to give some context and depth and clarity and explanation to what's really going on. But the other side is focused on using the superficial. Superficial is powerful. The superficial can be manipulative. The superficial can lead people down that wide, broad path of destruction where people are just humming along, not thinking about where they're
taking and placing their next step. Suddenly they're in the middle of political hell, which candidly is what's happened. It's what's happened. America was on this path towards marching towards the left on a consistent basis. The government was growing. People finally have awakened. I hope that we've given ourselves enough time. I hope that there are enough people who have joined in the fight. There are people that are waking up every day. They haven't become woke. They
become awakened to the problem, not with woke nonsense. They just had a slap of cross the face from reality that says this stuff has been going on for far too long. That's why the border, that's why people are incredibly on the side of Texas. I think that's in the stack of stuff as well along the border. People are on Texas's side and not the federal government
side when it comes to the border. So these superficial techniques and strategies still work, but I think they're becoming less effective for growing numbers of people, and that's a good thing. So timeouts in order. Got to take a break care of my friends. Sit tight back in just a minute. It's my friends. I've looked this up during the break and it is in the stack of stuff by the way, so you can look at this yourself. But listen to this. This is well. I found this googling it because
I read this somewhere. This isn't the one I originally found, but it's what I've just googled and found pole. This was January twenty ninth, so this was on Tuesday or wait monday, is that right? Poll Most Americans want Texas to stand its ground if you read this so. Rasmussen reports national telephone and online survey found that sixty nine percent of likely US vot voters support Texas erecting barriers at the border to prevent illegal immigrants from crossing, including fifty
three percent who strongly support the action. Just twenty seven percent oppose Texas taking action on its own to prevent illegal immigration, including fifteen percent who strongly opposed the state's actions. I just it doesn't make any sense. It doesn't make any sense why someone would not if you say it's it's the federal government's job to enforce the border security, Okay, But then so let's say you think
Texas shouldn't be doing it for those purposes. But then you say, the federal government is literally opposing trying to prevent people from coming across here illegally, So why shouldn't the state have their chance to protect their own border. I mean, it's it's craziness. It's absolute lunacy, and it's almost it's getting close to three to one, right, seventy five twenty five would be three to one. We're at sixty nine twenty seven, so or within shouting distance
of that. So the superficial culture has its work cut out for it. The more people know and have understanding of what's really going on. Time out to in order though back in a minute, all right, my friends, Unfortunately, that is all the time that we have today. But I've enjoyed this today. I told Oz, you know, I like doing episodes like this. I think that there's something that comes from it where you know,
we're not always talking about specific political issues of the day. Those things matter, but folks, the battle we're fighting, the battle we're fighting really is a multi front battle, and we go through that when we talk about the seven pillars of propaganda, and entertainment is one of those, and dealing with superficialities is one of those. And trying to figure out how to engage with people who buy into the rhetoric and the nonsense and the superficial silliness is something
that's important. We got to figure out. I gotta go have a great day, SDG.
