I think in retrospect a fun element of your book (not the only one) is the way it aimed to predict the future of influencing and got it (as I believe you’ve written elsewhere) wrong in an interesting way

one of the things that was most jarring about being undercover in nazi chatrooms for my book was how often violent videos were posted in the channels. executions, murders, blood. purposeful desensitization to violence can be detached from ideology and just entail inurement to the sight of death

memes and violence and racism and antisemitism all meld together in the acidic stew a ton of young men dip their heads in daily online, and that shit can cook your brain fast

"Political violence" is a term that exists to suggest a moral distinction between "violence against politicians" and "violence by politicians" - so that one can be condemned while the other can be normalized. Obviously, no such distinction exists in reality: violence is violence.

I agree with this - Leslie getting on city council (and beyond) makes perfect sense for the character, but it was the show’s shark jump.

Absolutely. It feels genuinely ahead of its time because Matthew Broderick’s character is like everywhere in 90s movies as a downtrodden hero and he read that way then, but now it’s easier to see him as the obvious villain he’s intended to be

A landlord turned off Tenant Client's family's heat upon learning Client was an immigrant.

Landlord hired three different law firms to argue this was legal, then fired each one after they couldn't get our case dismissed.

This week, landlord settled for enough that Client will buy a house.

The first thing everyone in this country who is anti-fascist can do now is to join something where people are already gathering to address any issue. Can't find anything you want to join, then make your own thing and invite people to join you. This is not a time for Lone Rangers.
