“There is a cult of ignorance in the US and has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.'” Isaac Asimov

The State of UX reports have been bleak for the past few years, but I appreciate this bit of optimisim in the final (?) one:
"Design, after all, is not just a job but a particular way to look at the world and reimagine it. If you love to design, you’ll find your way."

Trump alone didn't beat the justice system.
He had help.
It took Oligarchs relentlessly amplifying his lies on their media platforms.
Ethically compromised members of the Supreme Court.
70+ million willing to vote for a convicted felon.
There's a lot to fix. But it can be fixed. It must.
