Fantasy vs. Reality. What I often say is the reality is different from the fantasy. I don't know if they've even taken the time to say, "I don't want America to be a hegemony. I don't want certain people that have been in power before to be in power. We want to do things differently. We want to do things better." That's fine. You can believe these things. What is it going to look like? And what is it going to take to get there? I covered the protests here in Portland and I watched people destroying the Apple Store and filming it with their iPhones. And I'm like, you know, you might want to pick a lane. You want to be able to have the luxuries that you like, and the things that you've grown accustomed to, and indeed, the things that help fuel your revolution, because you can stream the Revolution by phone. And yet you want to get rid of Apple, because they represent a big corporation? Well, then what are you going to replace it with? Are you going to create a phone company? Or a media company? Then then do it. That's what I think we're still waiting to see.
