This story fails to mention the reason they couldn’t open the doors to save the people who died. Cybertruck doors can’t be opened from the outside when the electrical isn’t working, like when they’re on fire.

I've told this story about my early education on fascism before but not on Bluesky.
I vividly recall doing a project in school about history. Maybe I wanted to do the Korean War because I was a big MASH fan. That I don't recall.
My physics teacher arranged for me to do a live interview... 🧵

Arguably we are overdue for what is happening now. I think that's why so many communities of color are upset but not spiraling. White people are experiencing our reality. Trust the government? Why? The US government unified to oppress and not much else. Certainly not to progress
a lot america's problems come back to the basic fact that we 1) have barely had united government for the last 30 years and 2) it has been basically impossible to pass normal legislation for the last 20
The transformative promises are a product of an electorate that wants to have an elected autocrat in charge (or thinks we already have one), and the disappointment when they don’t happen is a product of those promises’ contact with mere reality.

This moment continues to feel like February 2020 for fascism: smart people who pay attention are freaking out, your average sea cucumber-like American is either totally unaware or blithely assuming everything will Be Fine.

In 1922 Alfred Stieglitz made a series of photographs of cloudy skies, calling them Equivalents because they matched an emotion or mood he was feeling.
