"For all the news stories that seem to tug us in one direction or another,
there is just one overarching story in the news for Americans today.
We are in an existential fight to defend our democracy from those who would
destroy it.
People seem to hark back to films from the 1930s and 1940s and think that so
long as we don’t have tanks in our streets, our government is secure. But in
this era, democracies die more often through the ballot box than at gunpoint."
Via Kevin O'Brien, who wrote "Today’s Conservative movement has its roots in
the slave society of the South."
