There are so many ways that people can be "groomed" by their pervasive culture.

There are a lot of files in this new dataset that have made me feel this way.

So many stories that are not told. Staying quiet. If the story isn't told from inside, let's look at the story from the outside and show what is happening in real life.
Trump Is Walloping Construction Businesses. The Industry Stays Quiet.
Raids on work sites. Roofers under siege. But builders keep mum.

A practical description of the effects of tariffs on American businesses.
NEW "This administration’s on-again, off-again tariff regime is leaving businesses that operate internationally with no certainty around costs and zero ability to plan for the future."
Trump’s tariffs are illegal. They’re also ruining my business.
Here’s what it looks like when a president wages war on private companies.

Individual stories are important but there are so many stories that are not known or told. Sometimes it's hard to understand the large picture.

People HAVE TO assess what is true. Know that the folks at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation are people who actively try to hoodwink people.
The post from the Reagan Foundation is just complete gibberish.

The ad did not, in fact, misrepresent Reagan's views. But the idea that anyone needs the Reagan Foundation's goddamn permission to use the publicly broadcast official remarks of a former president and/or edit them for brevity is crazy

This. This story matters so much. Every day is a new chance to do right.
"At every step along the way, I rationalized, compartmentalized, and found excuses to stay tethered to the party, even as I grew to believe it was undermining the foundations of our constitutional republic." Enough is enough: www.thebulwark.com/p/my-last-da...

Yup, this.
After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.
