.@JamesTalarico: We are living in an era of corruption. I don’t just mean illegal activity. I mean corruption in the deeper sense — the rotting of something from the inside. Politicians serving billionaire megadonors instead of their constituents. The top 1% owning more wealth than the entire middle class. For-profit social media algorithms sowing division and turning neighbor against neighbor.
Our systems are rotting from the inside out. The most powerful people in this country are profiting off our pain, our division, and our disconnection from one another.
This is, at its root, a spiritual crisis. And it will require a spiritual solution.
