People want nice things unless they're going to go to "those people" that authoritarians convince them are not nice. Same as ever. The proven way to deal with this is to actually narrate what the right is doing & why.

I was incredibly happy to meet my mentor Dr. @guobin-yang.bsky.social, the Director of my former workplace @cdcspenn.bsky.social at @annenbergpenn.bsky.social at #NCA2024
Thank you for all the care and collaboration, and for supporting me all the way to get to where I am.
Hope to see you soon. 🙏🏽
