  • Young people can't save democracy by themselves: A new vision is required

    1 week ago | salon.com | Chauncey DeVega

    Right-wing thought leaders and strategists have long understood that their radical revolutionary project is multigenerational. They must win the “hearts and minds” of young people in the present (and control how young people conceptualize the past) for their revolutionary project to succeed in the long term.

    As President Trump explained to a reporter after he imposed his historic tariff regime in early April, “sometimes you have to take medicine to fix something.” Trump’s shock therapy treatment is having the opposite effect: the patient is getting much sicker and suffering greatly, pleading for relief.
