       Best take I've seen yet on the events of the weekend;"What matters more than the action, though, is the reaction.  We should all condemn political violence.  We should all proclaim that this next election will be settled by the number of votes, rather than by threats, coups, beatings, or murders.  The media should not spread messages of hatred and baseless conspiratorial thinking."#TimothySnyder, 2024https://snyder.substack.com/p/political-violence#PoliticalViolence

       "And we should all be aware of the temptations of martyrdom.Whatever actually happens in an act of political violence, there will be someone, somewhere, who claims that victimhood means innocence, and that innocence justifies more violence by hands that remain ever blameless.  This sort of logic is already all over the internet.  That move was made in all the fascist cases."#TimothySnyder, 2024https://snyder.substack.com/p/political-violence
