In 2016 @sarahkendzior who is an expert in Authoritarianism wrote something I will never forget. She said to write down a list and always go back to that list to see how far we strayed from normal. It is unbelievable how far we strayed from normality and are abandoning democracy
Part of the problem is the media who seem to have very little understanding of authoritarian regimes and force us to normalize things by reporting on them as if all is normal. Part of it is denial that this can’t happen in America.
Whatever the reasons behind this it is frightening and we need to remember that none of this is normal. Not one thing coming out of our government, our media, and definitely not the WH. Seeing @SavannahGuthrie interviewing a spoiled racist brat reminded me how far we strayed
We have a Russian agent in the WH, our agencies are hanging by a thread and compromised, our govt workers are not getting paid, nazis are being brought into mainstream by media, Congress has failed to keep checks, & Russia is running foreign policy. None of this is normal
