Summary
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez warned that the Trump is deliberately overwhelming the public with chaotic news to induce passivity.
Citing Steve Bannon’s “flood the zone” strategy and historian Michiko Kakutani’s comparison of Trump to Mussolini and Hitler, she argued that Trump uses the internet to spread disinformation, much like past dictators used film and radio.
Urging people to stay engaged, she emphasized that collective resistance can slow harmful policies and that small acts of opposition make a difference.
It unfortunately can’t work that way. Fascists and liberals are united in their desire to maintain the institutions of power present in a liberal democracy. Leftists want to destroy them utterly. Even self described leftists (opportunists) will side against the left to preserve the privileges they gain with their entryism. You can’t change that dynamic; you can just see it coming before hand.
