“911, this service sponsored by Ring, what’s your emergency?”
“I think someone broke into my house!”
“Are you a Ring customer?”
“No!?”
“I’m sorry, our priority response is reserved for Ring customers.”
Nobody beats a bacterial or viral infection by arguing it to death
My increasingly convinced take: fascism & demagoguery generally are a communications-based phenomenon in a systems context. It strongly resembles spread of communicable disease.
It's a response to collapse of former mental world models, at societal scale. That triggers an informational overload ... from a loss of formerly-effective filters.

Comment Poem 1 #poetry #relationships
In the in between hours
Neither night nor day
A beauty born in a cocoon
spun for two to transform
A butterfly ghost can appear
Now, long flown away.
