The whole point of studying the 1930s is to foster hyper-awareness.

We should be nervous, pessimistic, jumpy. We should call out the first rumblings, the accidental tells, the faintest glimmers.

Because it was so monstrous that even the whiff of it is existential

Musk is reportedly considering a donation around 10x the size of the previous record donation. This is an Armada off Plymouth grade foreign assault on our democracy.

We need to act like it.
I understand the point here, but strongly disagree.

That politicians have failed to protect our democracy in the past does not justify a failure to protect it now.

The risk that our democratic system could be flooded with foreign money is real and immediate. It needs real and immediate action.
Changing electoral donation rules to stop one donor a bad idea. To change system that has benefited established parties & stop donations that now benefit an insurgent party will confirm sense system is rigged & drive backlash. To avoid that do a change which comes into effect after next election
