Amer­i­ca, says Chris Hedges, is con­vulsed by an array of patholo­gies that have arisen out of pro­found hope­less­ness, a bit­ter despair and a civ­il soci­ety that has ceased to func­tion. As our soci­ety unrav­els, we also face glob­al upheaval caused by cat­a­stroph­ic cli­mate change. Trump rode this dis­en­chant­ment to pow­er. Hedges argues that nei­ther polit­i­cal par­ty, now cap­tured by cor­po­rate pow­er, address­es the sys­temic prob­lem. He sounds a urgent warn­ing to jolt us out of our pas­siv­i­ty and com­pla­cen­cy. With the dan­gers fac­ing the coun­try and the plan­et this is no time to be sit­ting on the fence.
