They’re clearing out the best minds on purpose, just like the Mango Mussolini’s cabinet of mindless bizarros. Fascists can’t stand having anyone around with their own voice and mind. Might make them look like the stupid brutes they really are by contrast. They might even resist. Fuck these fascists.
Hard to quantify yet devastating. There’s going to be tons of changes to the world that are not immediately felt, but will reverberate for decades. America has lost its mojo.
History shows what happens when a nation becomes xenophobic and isolationist. The rest of the world advances while they become stagnant and left behind. This one term administration is very plausibly going to set this country behind by decades in so many different ways.
Every damn day I get out of bed, meditate/pray/contemplate while the coffee is brewing, watch the clouds and try to be present, and ask that I be able to help someone this day, and then I look at the news.
So, I shake it off, and continue.
But, I'm frightened. I admit that.
Dumb is the point. It will only take ONE act of terrorism against our institutions and public education to eviscerate the inertia of knowledge acquisition that has defined our society for the last 150 years.
They NEED us to be as dumb as possible, and fast! We have only one chance to stop this now!
Exactly!
Healthcare? Pthhh!
Environmental protection? Pthhh!
You poors are gonna die anyway (Praise Chee-suss-ah!)
Don’t touch my God given right to GUNS!
Tax reductions for the uber wealthy and corps? Hell, yeah!
I agree. You know I was blacklisted. I'm still being blacklisted. Someone with union started trolling me. I know they were union bc they had industry info. They said actors Don't need an education. Everyone does. America judging on surface is destroying us.
The stupid folk and those that bow down to the Orange Idiot, hate the educated.
Carl Sagan warned us.
Brilliant students coming to study here are a boon for our economy. Xenophobia will destroy us.
They don't understand that our higher education and research is the best in the world. Like everything else Pres. TACO is giving everything great about the US away. His stupid hats are all wrong. We won't be "great" or even "good". The brain drain will last for decades.

China doesn't offer courses in looting or affray.

But Trump only loves the poorly educated who can't figure out what grift he's up to.
