What drives individuals to align with or resist oppressive regimes? #AnneApplebaum's compelling essay originally published in the #Atlantic in 2020 #HistoryWillJudgetheComplicit, digs into the complex motivations that underpin political behaviours, through the telling of stories from real people and real experiences.
Through her writing we can begin to understand #DonaldTrump and untangle the enigma of Republican responses to his presidency. Applebaum's essay delves into the contrasting political paths of #MittRomney and #LindseyGraham, whose decisions during Trump's era raise thought-provoking questions about loyalty, ideology, and personal conviction. How do their stories reflect broader patterns of complicity and resistance in the face of authoritarianism? We take a critical look at the Trump administration's impact on American politics, drawing connections to historical instances of political resistance and the enduring struggle between personal values and public pressure and the darker side of human nature.
Finally, Applebaum's helps us reflect on the themes of collaboration and complicity within the Republican Party, as we ponder the upcoming Canadian election, and think deeply about who will best serve our collective interests during this critical time in our history. Tune in again on Friday February 7th for Part 2 of #MakingSenseofitAll. And please share this episode with anyone concerned about the state of democracy in the U.S. , Canada and around the world ...for what it's worth
