Thread - I've been thinking a lot about Walter Lippmann’s Public Opinion lately, especially in the context of Musk’s role in dismantling the federal workforce through DOGE. It’s a perfect example of what Lippmann warned about over a century ago.

There are people who will die for what they believe in and there are people who will accept their sacrifice. Be wary of the latter and don’t take advantage of the former.
