A bold explanation of how a country transitions from #democracy to #fascism. How many warning signs are already extant in your country?

This essay is relevant to a lot more than the growing dependence on AI. Consider, for example, the many swings around the world toward autocracy.

“In his 1941 book, Escape from Freedom, the German psychoanalyst Erich Fromm argued that the rise of fascism could be explained in part by people preferring to surrender their freedom in exchange for the reassuring certainty of subordination.”

Our king, our priest, our feudal lord – how AI is taking us back to the dark ages

Since the Enlightenment, we’ve been making our own decisions. But now AI may be about to change that, says Joseph de Weck, a fellow with the Foreign Policy Research Institute

Thanks for the gift link!

Best analysis of the National Security Strategy I’ve seen yet.

According to this “suicide note,” USA’s sole enemy is European liberal democracy.

@w7voa
Are you aware of the Georgian people’s ongoing resistance to their authoritarian government? After demonstrating every night for over a year, the people are now denied the right to do that. The government recently made it illegal to demonstrate in the streets. Then, when the demonstrations continued on sidewalks, the government instituted the requirement to get a permit 5 days in advance and to only demonstrate in assigned areas. Still, under threat of arrest and imprisonment, the people continue to fight for a place in the community of liberal democracies. @koteisaev, in Tbilisi, is doing a great job cross-posting Georgian Bluesky accounts to Mastodon. I think the Georgian people’s heroism, like that of the Ukrainian people, could be an inspiration to those who wonder whether it’s possible to oppose the authoritarian tides rising their countries.

HELL YES: Michael Steele delivers a genius game-plan to absolutely DERAIL the GOP. Democrats need to STOP helping Republicans. “Let them choke on (their majority).” His words were BLUNT: “Y'all need to chill on this, all this kumbaya partisan bi-partisan crap.” He added. 🔥🔥🔥
