i think it's wonderful that so many in high society are philanthropists.

“A small white minority seizes control of the state apparatus, quashes the judiciary, censors the media, imprisons opposition leaders, and establishes a one-party state.”
This line does not describe the United States, but rather Rhodesia, a white-ruled settler colony in Southern Africa that declared independence in 1965. Rhodesia’s illegal independence and white minority rule, over territory that is now Zimbabwe, didn’t unfold in a vacuum. Even critics of the regime lent tacit support or failed to truly condemn it—and by prioritizing their own interests, extended its life and the harms it imposed. These events offer lessons for the U.S. today as we see erosions of democracy evoke all-too-tepid responses.
