Ta-Nehisi Coates: If Democrats can't draw the Line at Genocide, they can't Draw the Line at Democracy www.juancole.com/2025/02/demo...

Our inability to act is a straight line that runs from our continuous inaction before.

What will it take?

STOP THE GENOCIDE!
STOP THE KILLING, there and here!

To everyone feeling it now, worried about the sanctity of life, worried about the first, fourth, fifth, eighth and even second amendments, who are tired of the morphing of principles into weapons of power, who have reached the point where they cannot take it anymore.

Klobuchar: "Somehow 50,000 peaceful protesters in 10 below weather were able to march without any problems, and then the next day half a dozen ICE and CBP agents couldn't handle a guy with a cell phone taking video of them and shot him. I think it's pretty obvious what's going on here."

🧵 @jburnmurdoch.ft.com is spot on about the conditions in his FT piece. Liberal democracy held it together thanks to growth, good demographics, and the promise of a better future. Those days are gone, and that’s the "why" behind the erosion. However...
Democratic politicians have, though, pursued growth in GDP at the expense of other values. One response to @jburnmurdoch.ft.com pessimistic scenario is refocus on those values, combined with egalitarianism, sufficiency and quality of life. Not "it's the economy, stupid" but "it's the the society"
Is liberal democracy in terminal decline?
The old system worked under a set of conditions that are no longer present
