What's happening today isn't a philosophical debate over whether democracy or autocracy is preferable.
It's a smash-and-grab by the super-rich, who are bankrolling a torrent of lies to pave the way for widespread financial exploitation.
It's organized crime, not politics.

When a hurricane struck North Carolina, Republicans lied about FEMA.
When a terrorist attacked New Orleans, Republicans lied about immigration.
When wildfires hit Los Angeles, Republicans lied about fire dept. funding and DEI.
Exploiting tragedy is part of the GOP playbook. Helping victims is not.

Finland is teaching children in school how to recognize fake news and propaganda as part of critical thinking and civic responsibility. Some of this will seem very familiar.

Be. Like. Finland.

I love it when history class is made to be so relevant and engaging!
Remember when "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" tried to teach us about tariffs and no one was paying attention
