douglass is really spittin' in this one ("the sources of danger to the republic")
![In fact, I am here to-night as a democrat, a genuine democrat dyed in
the wool. (Laughter.) I am here to advocate a genuine democratic republic;
to make this a republican form of government, purely a republic, a genuine
republic; free it from everything that looks toward monarchy; eliminate all
foreign elements, all alien elements from it; blot out from it everything
antagonistic of republicanism declared by the fathers—that idea was that
all governments derived their first powers from the consent of the gov
erned; make it a government of the people, by the people and for the
people, and for all the people, each for all and all for each; blot out all
discriminations against any person, theoretically or practically, and make it
conform to the great truths laid down by the fathers; keep no man from the
ballot box or jury box or the cartridge box, because of his color—exclude
no woman from the ballot box because of her sex. (Applause.) Let the
government of the country rest securely down upon the shoulders of the
whole nation; let there be no shoulder that does not bear up its proportion of
the burdens of the government. Let there [be] no conscience, no intellect in
the land not directly responsible for the moral character of the govern
ment—for the honor of the government. Let it be a genuine Republic, in
which every man subject to it is represented in it, and I see no reason why a
Republic may not stand while the world stands. (Applause.)](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:nvfposmpmhegtyvhbs75s3pw/bafkreihd6vwd2pzbhlkwvldn63wltzju3pt24p447r25bv2x7gsgaiibiu@jpeg)

If you burn down a forest, you don't miss out on lumber for just that season. You have to replant all the trees, nurture them, and wait for them to grow.
The science and research budget cuts happening now are wanton, senseless arson. Recovery, if it ever happens, will take generations.

Yeah as bad as it feels and as bad as the political optics are, I kind of believe that *raising* salaries of elected officials would help remove some of the incentives around corruption and also make it more feasible for lower-income people to serve
Counterpoint: Only rich people who don't need an income would be reps. AOC would be unlikely to afford to live as a US Representative on $60k/yr. As it stands now, a lot of freshman reps struggle to afford a residence at home and in DC.

American preeminence in science, discovery, and creativity across the disciplines was not just bc of great individual scholars or universities. It was the result of American public policy since WWII. Being destroyed before our eyes. Can’t survive without it.

An interesting thread all around, but this stat in particular really stuck out to me
The shifts in public opinion also influenced voting. Running a variety of statistical tests on presidential elections from 1964 to 1972, I found counties close to nonviolent protests saw presidential Democratic vote share among whites increase 1.3-1.6%. /15
