Mo Facts posits that Barack Obama is acting as a "shadow president," citing his prominent appearance at the COP26 climate summit. The hosts discuss a societal model where 30% of the population is "all-in" on the government narrative, 30% is completely opposed, and the 40% in the middle simply follows whoever appears to be winning. They note the surprising camaraderie between former political rivals like Obama and the Bush family.
A shift in global business strategy is discussed, moving from a "more people" model (more consumers, more babies) to a "less people" model favored by climate activists at COP26. The hosts explain how ESG investing prevents pension funds from investing in profitable sectors like oil and gas. They argue that corporate governance is now focused on stock price manipulation through share buybacks rather than traditional bottom-line profits.
