Speaker A: Yeah, it does. |
Speaker B: Yeah. I just, I do agree that sometimes it's just fruitless to talk about it. |
Speaker A: I do. I feel like it's a total waste of time and it just riles people up, and it's just like all kind of, like, engagement bait and. Yeah, I mean, and people get excited about this, and I feel like it's a distraction from the real issues, which is why I've never cared, which my real issue is eroding civil li... |
Speaker B: We also don't give them. |
Speaker A: No, we never give them. So, but anyway, he is very much, I think people go to the pirate. |
Speaker B: He definitely gives them. He definitely gives them. |
Speaker A: They want to hear about the political takes. Right. Which is why he's, he's a player. |
Speaker B: On the chess game of the political landscape. |
Speaker A: One thing that's interesting to me, though, is the old Silicon Valley and the old tech was very much left, like left leaning culturally, politically, whole thing. And I am, you know, the fact that Trump goes on the all in podcast. |
Speaker B: Right, right. |
Speaker A: And I, you know, I know David Sacks has always been very big Trump guy. Yeah, yeah, more. Right. But, you know, like Chamath and Jason Calcanus. |
Speaker B: Yeah. Did they used to be lefty? |
Speaker A: Definitely. Silicon Valley left. At least that was my impression of it.

Speaker A: Yeah, that's probably my biggest criticism of the left is they're just not hearing. |

Speaker B: Yeah, I haven't done any of my. My seeking of that. |
Speaker A: Well, that's all on you. |
Speaker B: Yeah, that's all on me. All right, well, if we ever bank the sanction, if we ever have Donald Trump on the episode, it'll just be a David episode. |
Speaker A: It'll just be a David. I might be out of town. I might recuse myself. So anyway, guys, this has been the debrief. Thanks for hanging with us. Bye. |
