I just started reading this last night and it feels absolutely essential. The lens of autocracy is embodied through the lens of lived experience and it's helpful to sit in the context of what's to come, even if it's terrifying. Thank you for that.

Thank you, I'm glad it helps

Next book on my reading list!

Well...this is discouraging and disheartening.

Unfortunately for this country, Sarah Kendzior hasn't been wrong yet that I've seen. How I wish I could say (and see) otherwise.

These aren't predictions. They're just facts that other people lied about.

show-me-the-hope.bsky.social•2 days ago

Understood.

I didn't want to believe her years ago but she has always been right

show-me-the-hope.bsky.social•2 days ago

I'm right there with you. There was a time (back when Twitter was Twitter) when I would refuse to read her posts and books because they were so dark and brought me down. Something inside of me must have known she wasn't wrong.

Women are always the leaders in the end. She wasn't wrong.

By any chance have you read Red Mafiya by Robert Friedman? It's next on my list but have heard contradictions on its accuracy.

sarahkendzior.bsky.social•2 days ago

Yes, and I highly recommend it along with his biography of Meir Kahane. If you read those two books, you'll understand a lot of what's happening now.

Thanks Sarah. I'll grab yours, too.

An entire presidential cabinet works for him

What was more embarrassing than Rubio bending and spreading for Lavrov?

Maybe Heggie sipping bourbon during his presser.

We can debate

trump era in NYC was also the period Guiliani as prosecutor ran out the Italian mob. It wasn't in the pursuit of justice as sold to the public, on the streets it was understood it was to make way for Russian mob. Bitched out trump to use his tower as exec level HQ, Brighton beach for grunts.
