"Rebellion is not always loud. Sometimes it’s the quiet refusal to give up on tenderness."

I read a comment that said,
“It may be—for now—a mild form of fascism. Political opponents aren’t being jailed or shot, media outlets aren’t being shuttered, and books aren’t being burned.”

And I just wanted to whisper — open your eyes.

Fascism doesn’t always march. Sometimes it scrolls.

The irony? Writing about it may ensure fewer people see it.
