The people who actually know stuff about the world are reality TV stars, Fox News hosts, and podcasters just asking questions.
Those are the people with actual knowledge.
Coming out publicly playing their hand like it's a royal flush when it's a 7 high and their cards are facing their opponent clearly wasn't going to do anything. The cynical take is they aren't that naive and this just gives them plausible deniability within their social circles when they are interrogated as to why they work for these corporations. But I like to give the benefit of the doubt.
