Crime is down. But Trump's authoritarian power grabs are escalating.
Random street crimes are being used as pretexts for repression.
"The events being seized upon by the White House and Republicans as evidence of surging crime in American cities have little to do with one another save for the fact that the victims are white."

Rasmus Jarlov on Twitter writes: "There is nothing to celebrate. Moving from average tariffs of less than 2% on trade between the USA and Europe to 15% under todayβs deal will inevitably lead to inflation. Almost everything will become more expensive in both Europe and the USA, and we will all be worse off. The economic illiteracy in the White House is doing serious damage to the West."
Stylish Skunk replies: "I have a feeling you have 0 idea what you're talking about.
In fact I know you do."
Rasmus Jarlov responds: "Of course. I am former minister of trade in Denmark and you are an anonymous Twitter profile. You probably know a lot more than me. For sure."

This quote from Ukrainian MP Oleksiy Goncharenko really resonates. He said the Ukrainian people know why they have to keep going because "When Ukrainians are fighting against Russia, thousands die.When Ukraine is occupied by Russia, millions die.β

Tyler Durden: I see in the fight club the strongest and smartest men
whoβve ever lived. I see all this potential and I see squandering. God
damn it, an entire generation pumping gas, waiting tables, slaves
with white collars, advertising has us chasing cars and clothes,
working jobs we hate so we can buy shit we donβt need. Weβre the
middle children of history man, no purpose or place, we have no
Great War, no Great Depression, our Great War is a spiritual war,
our Great Depression is our lives, weβve been all raised by television
to believe that one day weβd all be millionaires and movie gods and
rock stars, but we wonβt and weβre slowly learning that fact. And
weβre very very pissed off.
Chuck Palahniuk, Fight Club
"fight club" is the best example of the last man fukuyama worries about in his work "The End of History and the Last Man"
