Umberto Eco put together a now-famous list of 14 attributes of fascistic states. I'm going to discuss each of them in hopes this helps ppl understand that fascism is not just a buzzword. We're going to go through these by theme, so strap in. 🧵

Trump's executive orders, Musk's power grabs, dismantling institutions faster than anyone can track, attacking science, knowledge and international *cooperative* bodies and allies are all part of the authoritarian playbook.
I've also grouped the actions in a table to illustrate this.

Trump’s first 3 weeks have been a relentless flood of actions. It's incredibly hard to keep up.
I’ve gone through 69 actions & mapped out the pattern - showing how they fall within 5 broad domains consistent with authoritarian states 1/9

I’m increasingly convinced that the love that powers long term climate action grows out of all the time we spend doing the things we love, in the places we love, with the people we love.
Without that, what are we fighting for?

Saw someone upbraiding someone else for having a hobby while the world is on fire, and, my friends:
1. The world is ever on fire, this is today's conflagration;
2. If you don't find time for rest and joy the fire will consume you;
3. Don't let people shame you for being an entire human.

I have 3 cats. They live outside/in the garage attached to my house. They hunt prolifically. I also feed them so they remember where home base is. The greediest cat is +3 lb this past year, as measured by the vet. He is *not* impressed with the offer of 15% less kibble, and aggressive about it.

After a fairly fraught week I just want to take a moment to take a moment to say that IMO violence and the taking of a human life is almost always morally wrong. However, I think there is also a message that everyone should hear: 1/

If you can write alt text, please do.
If you can’t, you can tag your posts with the alt4me hashtag and someone else will.

I know everybody is saying it for this platform, but the ability to see what you want to see actually exist on the/a/my feed is more refreshing than I thought it would be.
The more time I spend here, the more weird the other platforms seem.
