.@sarahkendzior called it back in 2015. 'Every country that becomes a dictatorship started with a chorus of people saying, "It can't happen here." It can happen anywhere.' @AnandWrites the.ink/p/sarah-kendzi…
'It's bizarre to me people critique "alarmism" without defining it. If you describe a threat & give evidence to support why you believe there is a threat, you are not an alarmist in a pejorative sense. You are a realist sounding the alarm.' @sarahkendzior the.ink/p/sarah-kendzi…
'I think the fact that I got every major thing right is less interesting than the question of why all the people who got nearly everything wrong still have jobs.' @sarahkendzior @anandwrites the.ink/p/sarah-kendzi…
'It's important to note that most people who predicted our political direction accurately were women and/or not white, which played a major role in why their theories were dismissed.' @sarahkendzior @anandwrites the.ink/p/sarah-kendzi…
"Media as an institution is very racist, and they are now uncomfortable that Black and brown people were much better at anticipating what Trump would do than white people." @sarahkendzior @AnandWrites the.ink/p/sarah-kendzi… #BlackLivesMatter #DiversityAndInclusion
'Media racism kills. Failure to portray Trump & those around him as a threat helped streamline brutal policies aimed at Black and brown Americans. White elitist journalists need to reckon with their role in causing mass death and suffering.' @sarahkendzior the.ink/p/sarah-kendzi…
'The problem is that the U.S. political establishment insists on seeing everything through a lens that dismisses the idea that Trump genuinely has no interest in serving this country and, in fact, enjoys hurting this country.' @sarahkendzior @anandwrites the.ink/p/sarah-kendzi…
'They kept insisting he was unqualified, why he let COVID spread. I said he's doing this intentionally, he wants to kill people & make money off the crisis. He is absolutely willing to let Americans die; he gets off on it. And I was right.' @sarahkendzior the.ink/p/sarah-kendzi…
"Fascist" implies loyalty to the state. A fascist wants to embody & expand the state & usually has imperial ambitions. Trump wants to destroy the U.S.: he wants to strip it down and sell it off for parts to both domestic and foreign backers" @sarahkendzior the.ink/p/sarah-kendzi…
'Trump truly doesn't care if the U.S. survives. This makes him different from dictators like Hitler or Stalin,Netanyahu and Putin. The Trump administration is simply a transnational crime syndicate masquerading as a government.' @sarahkendzior @anandwrites the.ink/p/sarah-kendzi…
'Trump doesn't care if the country itself is defeated, as long as he is not defeated... We're dealing with a new kind of threat and need to come up with new measures to combat it. I encourage people to be very creative in their approach.' @sarahkendzior the.ink/p/sarah-kendzi…
'The people who committed crimes in this administration need to be prosecuted. Some of the crimes are so severe that they're violations of the Geneva Convention. They are crimes against humanity. We need Nuremberg-style trials.' @sarahkendzior @anandwrites the.ink/p/sarah-kendzi…
'There's a giant, largely buried story here. @craigunger @jkbjournalist have told parts of it. I've heard from Trump supporters who read my work & changed their minds bc they learned about ties to Epstein, Mogilevich & other parts of his criminal history.' the.ink/p/sarah-kendzi…
