The Logic of Catastrophe open.substack.com/pub/clairebe... Nuclear war isn't inevitable, but if we don't mitigate these risks, it approaches it. None of them will be fixed by optimism, fatalism, or denial. It will only be fixed if citizens get serious about this.

Beyond the obvious need for tribunals for the crimes Noem and others have committed and enabled, bringing shame back seems fundamental to the enterprise of rebuilding this country. No society can survive without a general understanding that this kind of shameless lying is unacceptable.
