"The national media is conglomerated in NYC, but they are not representative of NYC. They are representative of the wealthiest, most privileged people in NYC. They often lack basic empathy for suffering people and this contributed to the hyperbolic narrative of the 'crime wave.'"

Will rule of law in America survive?

I don't know. Do enough people LIKE rule of law?

That's what I asked in this week's blog post, here:

People are mad that The Little Mermaid is Black? The lady who is also a fish? Who lives under the sea? Whose best friend is a talking crab?

History is a cycle of these things. Economic and political instability open the door for Right Wing reactionaries to claim culture is "decadent" and "degenerate."

That it's "poisoning" the minds of the youth and the country and is part of a larger evil conspiracy.

No air show, no mass mobilization, no declaration of war, a few no-show tanks, allusions to the “moral degradation” of the West (read: gays and the Wizarding World of cultural backlash), & much ado about Castle Wolfenstein fantasies. Punxsutawney Putin crawled back into his hole.

Elon Musk buying Twitter isn't about "free speech" or turning a profit.

It's about a robber baron acquiring a weapon.

History shows us exactly where all of this is heading. It's not pretty, but we have to look this thing in the face.

But what history warns us about is that when robber barons and the exorbitantly wealthy see their preferred mythologies interrupted and they become vulnerable to criticism and reform.

They turn to fascists. They turn to Nazis. They embrace authoritarianism.

If Democrats in Congress don’t take action against Greene, and if we in the media don’t hold Kevin McCarthy to account for this far-right caucus member of his, then we are all complicit in the mainstreaming of white supremacy, antisemitism, Holocaust denial, and more.
