I watched some Rachel Maddow in the hotel room for the first time in years. It’s sad. Authoritarianism, J6, more authoritarianism. “This is what you wanted, American people, so now you have it,” Maddow said with a bitter look. She seems not to consider herself an American based on this statement.
You’d think that if years of Trump, authoritarianism and J6 brought a complete electoral wipeout, people would manage to pivot. Isn’t this what the Rachel Maddow crowd always recommends to us? “Learn to code”, embrace change, “just move”. But when it comes to setting an example and showing some intellectual agility instead of lecturing everybody on how stuck in their ways they are, there’s bupkes.
The preachers of how great change is seem to not be very good at changing.
Exactly.
