(This is a VERY long read, but the comprehensive analysis of Russia and China--among other sites of state oppression--is followed by some potent commentary about MAGA and key efforts to protect US elections and general democratic society that will matter greatly to many readers. It's too thoughtful a read to be captured well in screencapped quotations, so... if you're a weirdo on lunch break with the time for it, do enjoy the whole!)
@MLClark SUCH a good read. Vital.

@MLClark Still waiting for the prescriptive part of what to do about it.
It is no fun being Cassandra.
The weird thing is that none of it would work without the complicity of evangelical leaders. Actual evangelicals used to be properly horrified by Trump till he was embraced by their pastors.
Whole segment of society is way too easy to be led by the nose.
