So I'm re-reading a book I haven't read this millennium, and reading this page in 2026:😳 The book is called Tik-Tok by John Sladek, published 1984

Page reads:

"Governor Auburn once hired some thugs to blind a head waiter who hadn't recognized him. But hell, rough backgrounds are common enough. Just look at President Packard himself, he's the guy we'll be running against in the damned election, an admitted rapist."
"He was never brought to trial," I said.
"Only because his brother was the district attorney and his cousin the chief of police and his dad owned the rest of the town. The public made a fuss, you may remember, at the last election, but what good did it do? Chuck Packard took forty states anyway. People know but they don't care, they get so callous or desperate...

The guy you're throwing out your back defending:

John Fetterman, supposed Democrat repeating verbatim GOP talking points and framing any opposition to that opinion, as Trump Derangement Syndrome - the President's made up phrase for opposing his fascism.

A much more recent example that I think about all the time:

"Eye-opening little anecdote from a friend who ran a table top game for his all male gaming group: He gender flipped every character in the pre-written module, resulting in an all female setting. His players grew increasingly paranoid and were convinced al of a conspiracy"

Glad Martha Stewart is speaking out. It's a shame it took her granddaughter shaming her to do so.
