A coercive fascist government is clearly a problem.
But an equally big problem is that orgs such as CBS, ABC, UC Berkeley, Paul/Weiss, and others are capitulating. Every one is a domino encouraging others to do the same.

It is hoped there will be more storks in future years, if the project in Staffordshire continues its success.
