Most people I knowā€”even me, to an extentā€”have been avoiding it. Well, we donā€™t have that luxury anymore.

Summary

Itā€™s time to reengage with politics as Trump prepares to take office again.

Unlike 2017, Trump now has a more compliant establishment, streamlined strategies, and influential allies like Musk, Zuckerberg, and Bezos.

Concerns include his administrationā€™s potential for sweeping authoritarian measures, such as Project 2025, and media normalization of his actions.

Vigilance is necessary to counter efforts to dismantle democratic institutions.

      Being rude to your friends and family is not going to stop the fascists either. Communication style matters. If you donā€™t know that to be true then itā€™s guaranteed youā€™re not good at it.
