It's all right there in front of us - what we who value freedom are up against
From the TFG years, to the decades of hate radio and TV, to the rise of authoritarian rule - witness what Putin is doing (I hope we never hear the phrase "never again" again - because it is indeed "again). The Judge Jackson proceedings laid it all bare out there. January 6 is another version of that view. The Taliban and pulling the rug out from educating girls, which happened today. And - guns.
Think Handmaid's Tale - think blatant patriarchy. Male dominance, white dominance, right wing religion dominance, strong man authoritarian dominance. And right now, our opposition is essentially a cult - of ignorance, and fear.
There is an attack on decency, fairness, joy, science, curiosity, acceptance, diversity.
I just hope that we are up to the fight. It is going to take more than strongly worded memos, or appearances on TV news. But make no mistake - this is a fight for our future.
