An optimistic rant you should listen to: March 8 Mary Trump Show
We are now in a foot race between progress and authoritarianism
Here’s an optimistic rant you should listen to: Danielle Moody on last week’s Mary Trump Show podcast/Youtube Show. The whole March 8th episode is excellent. The panel of “Nerd Avengers” discussed the foot race between progress (increased civil rights and liberties) versus repressive authoritarianism and fascism. The episode title is “CPAC Highlights—the Crowds, the Stars, the Fascism.”
And yes, NC Lieutentant Governor Mark Robinson spoke at this conference.
Danielle Moody took a surprisingly optimistic point of view with an inspiring rant that I really appreciated. Dahlia Lithwick and others countered with the structural changes that are in place that give the budding fascists like Ron DeSantis way too much power. See: voter suppression, gerrymanding, Supreme Court capture, and more.
I am not going to recap the whole discussion—you should go listen and subscribe. It’s always worth a listen and this episode was very powerful.
This week’s Mary Trump summoned her Nerd Avengers panel with Danielle Moodie, Jennifer Rubin, Norm Ornstein, Dahlia Lithwick, and Wajahat Ali.
Isn’t it nice to know that the Trump family contributed some good to the world? Mary Trump is awesome.
MTS excellent!
