So my former political party has become a fascist-embracing cult, but everybody goes on & on about how messed up the Democratic Party is? Seriously? It’s the “Democratic Party” that has issues? Not the party that’s given up on democracy and ignores the rule of law?

Really good read as always from David.
We are no longer the leader of the free world. We are no longer a beacon of democracy and justice. We are no longer than land of opportunity. We are no longer a nation in which no one is above the law. Our myths about ourselves are killing us. What to do? My latest. open.substack.com/pub/davidrot...

It’s a hard decision because there aren’t good options here, but it’s better to be aware of the possibility. Heads up could mean the difference.
