SO MUCH THIS.
I've been thinking that limits in the public's civic knowledge is one of the most serious threats right now. Means that statements like, "well the president should be able to align federal spending with his vision" go unchallenged.
Really good thread with receipts below 👇

I’m worried that many Americans have no idea what democracy even means, why it’s important, how it relates to our nation’s history, which is barely taught to begin with. Dems should be running civic workshops and teach-ins to explain, wild as it seems, why democracy is better than a dictatorship.
