Trump was just in there like a pig in shit.

Slowly making my way through They Though They Were Free by Milton Mayer. Haunting comparisons to today.

Really appropriate example, actually.

As the Industrial Revolution began, workers naturally worried about being displaced by increasingly efficient machines. But the Luddites themselves “were totally fine with machines,” says Kevin Binfield, editor of the 2004 collection Writings of the Luddites. They confined their attacks to manufacturers who used machines in what they called “a fraudulent and deceitful manner” to get around standard labor practices. “They just wanted machines that made high-quality goods,” says Binfield, “and they wanted these machines to be run by workers who had gone through an apprenticeship and got paid decent wages. Those were their only concerns.”

Wish you the best, your posts have been real bright spots for this terrible year.
