Fatigue-Resistant Resistance
If the upending of democratic society by the Trump administration were a literal nightmare, then it would be plausible to expect to wake up to a reasonably sane reality. The dream could be shaken off. Or if the venomous ideology of this administration could be understood as performative, dystopian theater of the absurd, then it would be possible to laugh, however nervously, at the ridiculousness of its palpable lies and its self-serving manipulations of public policy, the legislature, the courts, the armed services, and foreign relations.
