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.
Related: A lot of NPR's income today comes from corporate ads.

The transmogrification of 'endemic' into 'benign' has been the crowning semantic achievement of the pandemic.
"Meanwhile, the White House’s id—the pundit class—keeps providing cover fire, declaring the pandemic’s toll overstated, or, in the latest twist from the University of California–San Francisco’s Monica Gandhi, offering a “scientific” rationale for doing less (i.e., stop testing, stop masking) by using “endemic” as a talisman to justify throwing our hands up in the air."

So, Elon Musk reinstates Flynn on Twitter on the 2 year Anniversary of Jan 6.
He fires people in Twitter Brazil in charge of moderation, ie keeping an eye on inciting violence, etc.
On the day after Brazil insurrection he reinstates Ali Alexander, yes the "stop the steal" a**hole who is partly responsible for the Jan 6 insurrection.
He's not trying to hide what he's up to.
He's stoking the flames of fascism and violence.
Elon Musk is a terrorist.
