We've been experiencing the growth of authoritarianism for some time. Now we're entering a new phase. There's still time to stop this, but that time is wearing thin.
I wish I knew how this could be fixed. Voting could stave off the disaster, but it's only a temporary fix. And major news outlets all have their Henry Olsens, those quislings who are symbols of "fairness in reporting." Every one of them reaches millions of people, telling them, as Olsen does, that everything is just peachy.

So how do "we the people" fix this short of armed rebellion against the 1%, a la Simpsons "torches and pitchforks" and probably worse?
