Trump has openly embraced fascism. He controls one of the two major political parties, which is led by people who embrace fascism, too.

Big Journalism continues, for the most part, to embrace business as usual.

I despise the leadership of supposedly democracy-embracing institutions that refuse to recognize -- or tacitly accept -- democracy's tailspin.

Journalists can't save us alone. But without their help, the worst is much more likely to come.

Psst: I feel this way too (about trying to write political satire about the post-Brexit UK):

What do we call normal Germans who weren't particularly anti-Semitic but voted for Hitler anyway and shrugged their shoulders as the Nazi agenda became clear?

WE CALL THEM NAZIS.

What should we call normal Republicans who aren't particularly racist or anti-LGBTQ but are planning to vote for Trump or a third party candidate and shrug their shoulders as the GOP's fascist agenda becomes clear?

WE SHOULD CALL THEM FASCISTS.

Y’all — picketing a restaurant because it serves Israeli food is like protesting border policy by picketing a taco truck. It’s bigoted, it’s stupid, and it’s not going to acheive the desired outcome. Picket a business linked to IDF, or demonstrate outside of your congressional rep’s office. Don’t go pick some random “maybe Israeli kinda ish” place. That is some racist dumb shit.
