Unsurprisingly, the thing Noah Smith is saying is obviously not true.
Look at reports on the reaction to the assassination of MLK... "glee, satisfaction and weeping in equal parts" (www.nytimes.com/2018/04/02/r...) as the Smithsonian notes "some actually celebrated" (nmaahc.si.edu/explore/stor...).

The people wondering "how could anyone who isn't a professional escape after a high profile daylight assassination" are forgetting two things:
1. Cops are bad at their jobs
2. The FBI used to be somewhat better at their jobs and were recently gutted by political layoffs

New rule: if you're in your 80s, I don't want to hear a damn word about whether someone will play a "role in the future of the Democratic Party." You're not going to be around for it!

Compton, CA: A masked, heavily-armed man wearing body armor jumped out of a SUV today to kidnap a local resident.
He forgot to put the vehicle in park, causing it to roll down the street damaging other cars. He jumped in the vehicle (which had no platess) and drove off without identifying himself.

I feel like we need to keep saying this because it’s so insane: This is a legal U.S. resident who has been detained for over a month now for his political opinions.
The Department of Homeland Security denied Mahmoud Khalil permission to attend the birth of his first child, who was delivered at a New York hospital on Monday, according to emails reviewed by The New York Times.
Mahmoud Khalil’s Son Arrives After ICE Refuses to Let Him Attend Birth
Mr. Khalil, a permanent resident detained in Louisiana, had requested a monitored furlough for the birth. His request was denied in less than an hour.

Fascism is when Donald Trump bans 1600+ vetted Afghan Muslim refugees who helped USA against the Taliban—but now issues an Executive Order accepting white Afrikaner South Africans as refugees to the USA.
It was never about justice or national security. It was always about advancing white supremacy.

Trump is going to go beyond just spreading disinformation. He will use the power of the state to try to change reality itself.
Considering how media is already bending to his will, it is likely to succeed in many ways. Part of resistance will be simply telling the truth no matter the consequence.

One reason people insist that you use the proper channels to change things is because they have control of the proper channels and they’re confident it won’t work. - Jon Stone
The Ohio Supreme Court has nullified the $650 million judgement that multiple counties won against Big Pharma over the opioid crisis.
The court ruled that the state's product liability law prohibits counties from bringing public nuisance claims against pharma corporations.
