For all my 90s heroes with heartbreak and regret on the mind.
"And it's been a long December and there's reason to believe
Maybe this year will be better than the last
I can't remember all the times I tried to tell myself
To hold on to these moments as they pass"

Daddy Trump (Father Trump) is the natural extension of an emasculated right-wing willing to simp for him. They're fear based and Trump is savior. They fear the feminine. They fear free thought. They fear everything non-binary. All must fit into their binary world view. Us vs them. Trump is Daddy.

Reading Hedges, it's become clearer to me how we've gotten here. Not that it makes it any better, but at least I'm armed with more of an understanding of cause and effect. Chomsky before him, and many others, have been sounding the alarm bells for years. It's not like they didn't see this coming.

It's near impossible to triangulate the influence of Russian disinformation and tech bro fascism. I think Trump is the intermediary. How has Russia already won? Read below:

"Dad, can you get deported if you have papers?" This broke me. It's deeply upsetting to sit down to dinner with my 14 and 10 year old daughters, and having to discuss deportations. My kids are worried about their friends, and their parents and families. They shouldn't have to worry. Fuck.

New word for the day: "logocide" - the killing of words.
As in: MAGA and Trump have committed a logocide. What is truth? What we see with our own eyes, or what they tell us to believe? We must be intolerant of the intolerance. We must adopt a radical intolerance, to save tolerance for the future.
