I found this is a very powerful video, beautifully pulled together by the folks at MeidasTouch. Apparently it came out two weeks ago, but I hadn’t seen it until just now, and I haven’t seen any references to it on dkos.
The ReTHUGS talk a lot about “liberty”, equating it with things like whether they’re free to get a haircut whenever they want. They don’t see the damage Trump has done around the world, to international efforts to limit the power of foreign autocrats and dictators. Like Russia, where reporters get killed for telling the truth. Or in North Korea, where the government uses arrest, torture and executions to maintain fear and control over the population.
The ReTHUGS don’t see that Tyrant Rump is doing his best to make America an autocratic country, and has already taken us too far in that direction.
There are so many aspects of the everyday corruption from this administration.
I’m glad to see this angle getting covered.
Here’s the video, I hope people will spread it around.
