NPR bears great responsibility for pushing the US toward autocracy.

NPR has been unable to accurately convey, without bothsidesism, the dangers we face.

The effect is that NPR listeners are falsely reassured—they don't learn about how dangerous the moment is, how extreme conservatives have become. Because NPR doesn't state that clearly.

@protecttruth @shoq Once I was an avid supporter of NPR, but grew weary of serious treatment of right wing nonsense. It has probably been 15 years since I could listen without frustration. Gave up entirely when 1A became a feature.
