Hannah Arendt on PBS a Must Watch
The documentary on Hannah Arendt details her analysis of the stages of autocracy.
It is so on point with what is going on now. She escaped from Hitler then arrives
here and sees what's going on in the McCarthy era which is hauntingly similar to
current events. Controlling the media, hiring imbeciles to run the government, etc.
We must gather our wits and come out fighting. NOW

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
