If they're still publishing history books in 30 years, think they'll make Trump out to be a sin-eater? I could see a fight to get his name removed from things to be used as relief valves.

They’ve been using him as a sin eater for the last 10 years so I imagine they’ll keep on doing it

relief valves.

In a coincidence I saw a similar term only ~1 hour ago...

I maintain that No Kings is a release valve funded by billionaires that has zero substantive demands and I find it insane how even some scholars of authoritarianism are not willing to point this out.

Lol, that's what I meant. Same thing.😅

Edit: lmao I just searched my comment history and apparently I switch back and forth between the two. hahaha

Google's vs used to be golden. But it turned to shit. I wonder which term is more common. Years ago I would know but Google removed the number of hits so I can't check that just by googling.

It's the duty of all of us to make sure the US doesn't last long enough for that to happen
