Fascists see education and the educated as a threat. Democracies flourish when education and fact-finding thrive. #TruthBrigade #DisinfoBuster truthbrigade.indivisible.org/s/OgrZRXDY - Reposted by Emily SchleigerAmerica is supposed to be the land of the free. So why are extremist pundits and politicians leading attacks on the rights of vulnerable people who just want to be themselves? Fear mongering is about power, not people. Spread facts, not fear! #TruthBrigade

- I need more from the Jim Henson Idea Man doc, specifically, why is his wife Jane referred to as an anarchist by her kids—bc she wanted more input in a company she cofounded and owned 40% of? Bc she was fed up with his absence while she raised his kids?

- In any case, can someone make a doc about Jane?? 100% would skip the Thanksgiving cooking today to watch immediately, like the punk anarchist I (?) am.
