Finished reading: On Tyranny by Timothy Snyder 📚

Believe in truth. To abandon facts is to abandon freedom. If nothing is true, then no one can criticize power, because there is no basis upon which to do so. If nothing is true, then all is spectacle. The biggest wallet pays for the most blinding lights.

This book is short, but I can’t call it sweet considering the political climate in the U.S. It offers a sobering look at the similarities between Soviet & Nazi regimes, and the first Trump term. It’s shorter than some of your favorite tech podcasts and you should give it a read or listen.
