This absolutely captures something. I don’t want to be ‘that person’ in every conversation I have but this is the time to be that person!
honestly think some of the hesitation here is that no one wants to sound like a crank. i was talking at an event last night and even i felt like a crank while i was speaking!
What if there were a coup, the US government fell to a drug-addled oligarch who seized control of our money, secrets, and levers of power, and Corporate media did not report on it?

I taught a pop culture and politics class this fall and our collective answer (deeply prompted by my students access to a lot of media I’m not as literate in) was very much so…. And one ignores this at one’s peril.
