Attacking truth, facts, and science is part of a classic authoritarian playbook. We as educators have an important role helping young people become critical thinkers to see through the lies and corruption. @ruthbenghiat in the new #AmericanEducator: aft.org/ae/fall2025/ben-ghiat

This conversation is everything the Gorgon's needed to hear.
It's WOMEN who make resistance and repair happen.
It's WOWWN who make renewal and regeneration happen.
Resistance can also be World Building.

Why Authoritarians Fear Women w/ Ruth Ben-Ghiat
Authoritarian regimes have always feared women. And they should! Throughout history, women have refused to stay silent in the face of extremism and have fought back using their relationships, organizing skills and creativity to protect their families and communities. Join us to hear from historian and author Ruth Ben-Ghiat about the critical role women play in resisting authoritarianism and why local organizing is one of the most powerful tools we have in our playbook. We will explore how autocrats target women and how we effectively fight back and win. Red Wine & Blue is a community of diverse suburban women working together to defeat extremism, one friend at a time.

Information warfare is the point of Trump's participation. The lack of live fact-checking by the moderators will make his goal of indoctrination easier

And they are only scared of political violence from his supporters.

What they forget, is when their policies begin fucking over the rest of the population, there are people in that population who will go after them as well Luigi Mangione style. Idiot cowards.

Trump objects to being compared to Nazi leader #AdolfHitler —so much so that he sued CNN for $475 million, claiming CNN journalists and one freelancer (me) were defaming him by likening him to a #Dictator.

Last week’s essay addressed the question of how an #authoritarian leader such as Trump would endure the experience of a criminal trial.
