“Sympathy is not action,
and does not absolve us of the need
to do something.
Action is effective with this travesty,
pushing back creates friction
and exposure
if incapable of stopping the destruction
altogether.
He's weak tea.
Not just Putin can bully him.
Even Musk can bully him,
even Musk's young son.
We have to keep remembering that.
And the political minions following him
can even more easily be bullied--
that's how he got them on board in the first place.
They don't want to lose their place and their power.
Do something.
Make a call.
Write a letter.
Attend a protest or a town hall.
It may not stop everything,
but it may stop something.
And at least we'll have tried.”

“У цьому сенсі сучасний тоталітаризм можна визначити як режим узаконеної громадянської війни, запроваджений через надзвичайний стан і такий, що зробив можливим фізичне знищення не лише політичних опонентів, а й цілих категорій громадян, яких з тих чи інших причин вважали неможливим інтегрувати у політичну систему. Відтоді свідоме використання вічного надзвичайного стану (навіть якщо його й не було проголошено офіційно) стало однією з головних практик сучасних держав, зокрема й так званих демократій.”
