"Born to the manor" seems to rub people the wrong way but without people putting a lifetime into developing values around honorable, ethical service then all that remains of democracy is oligarchy and tribalism; all that remains of law is witch trials; all that remains of scientific inquiry is corporate flacks.

Khi người tốt sợ làm việc tốt, bộ máy lâm nguy: Khi cơ chế không phân biệt được thiện-ác, chính hệ thống ấy đã vận hành sai. Nguy cơ hỏng toàn diện xuất phát từ sự im lặng của lương tâm.

@jmcrookston I read the entire thread.
The sheer scale of atrocities and blatant disregard for human decency in the Trump administration is shocking. His actions are so extreme that they would have ended any normal politician's career. I can’t even remember them all. 😢

The list of abuses is staggering: firing generals, banning hunger surveys, cozying up to dictators, and turning the presidency into a grift. The corruption, authoritarianism, and cruelty are numerous and numbing.

What's most disturbing is how predictable it all was. We saw the warning signs, but the institutions that were supposed to stop him failed at every turn. This slow-motion collapse of democratic norms raises questions about the resilience of American institutions and how fragile they really are.

The system's failure to stop Trump despite the warning signs is a stark reminder of the need for institutional reform. Can we strengthen democratic institutions to prevent similar failures?

#InstitutionalFailure: globally, #carcrashes are a major cause of #death, killing more #people than #homicides and #suicides combined. #Cars killed 43,000 Americans in 2021, a number that has increased by nearly a third in the last decade while our peer countries have decreased their #carfatalities.
