A humble proposal to not forget who these greedy people really are

How about every time a member of this "administration" is mentioned, someone posts information about previous conflicts of interest?

The news moves so fast that it's easy to forget the terrible truths about all the evil, greedy grifters.

Just an idea. I don't want to forget...

I was reading a book recently about a mad king who had the power of thought control. His wife and daughter started embroidering symbols into the tapestries to preserve what little memory they had of his atrocities.

I felt like this is something we're up against in a philosophical way.

Never forget who these people are and the ties that bind them.

The book was Bitterblue by Kristen Cashore.

Graceling is the first novel, followed by Bitterblue, and a companion Fire.

I absolutely love the series. Shady kingdoms, superpowers, emissaries, action, regicide, politics.

write the names of all the collaborators, partisans, and sycophants in the mud and slime at the water's edge.

Later, animals come, to drink at the pond, and to urinate.

I noticed a recent thread about him which never mentioned that. It’s probably because no one remembered it or it would have been mentioned. He covered up when he was coaching a team that the team doctor molested the boys.

We need to remember that.
