VULGAR DEMAGOGUE

Book blurb for "It Can't Happen Here" by Sinclair Lewis (1935)

    "Vulgar, almost illiterate, a public liar easily detected.. He was
    an actor of genius"

    A vain, outlandish, anti-immigrant, fear-mongering demagogue runs
    for President of the United States -- and wins. Sinclair Lewis's
    1935 bestseller is the story of Buzz Windrip, who promises poor,
    angry voters that he will make America proud and prosperous once
    more, but takes the country down a far darker path. As the new
    regime slides into authoritarinanism, newspaper editor Doremus
    Jessup can't believe it will last -- but is he right? This
    cautionary tale of liberal complacency in the face of populist
    tyranny shows it *can* happen here.

By way of an #introduction of sorts:

I was an early-ish adopter of computers (1972) -- with a very brief flirtation with PLATO (1975), the Internet, nee ARPAnet (1977), Linux and HTML (1993), 3D printing (2008), F/LOSS from a time before such a term existed, etc.

I'm a long-time F/LOSS advocate & educator (still) after a good run as a programmer and tutor.

All that said, I was very naive about the negative impacts of tech.

So, these days, I'm more of a musician. 😁 Or so I like to think.
