"The US hasn't had, as a nation, a collective mourning for the victims of this pandemic. We haven't had a lowering of the flag. We've had none of the symbolic actions that bind a country together in a time of tragedy." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/our-mala…
"We're a country which doesn't have trust in authority and doesn't have authorities we can trust. We've lost sources of trust like local news. If we had it, people would have known what was happening early in the pandemic." -- Tim Snyder on @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/our-mala…
"Truth is about courage. Truth is not about accepting the obvious or the apparent or what other people think. Truth is about courage -- it's about saying the thing that people *don't* want to hear." -- Tim Snyder on @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/our-mala…
"To take the attitude of putting your head in the sand and raise it to the level of federal policy is just the purest of tyranny, as tyranny was diagnosed by Plato. The tyrant doesn't want to hear the bad news." -- Tim Snyder, @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/our-mala…
