The Pressure of Existing in Trump's Authoritarian America.
About this episode
The episode discusses the pressures of living in America under Trump's authoritarian regime, focusing on his policies and rhetoric.
Trump’s opposition to climate policies have increased long-term energy, food, and housing costs by expanding fossil fuel dependence, complicated by his war in Iran. His abusive rhetoric towards immigrants and minorities creates a national anxiety, incompatible with the values of humanity. Then there's the criminalization of protest, free speech and opposition to his nationalist regime - all contributing to the pressure cooker like environment of Trump's America. Independent media has never been more important.
