   @m

   There are people doing this, e.g. very in-depth investigative/curatorial #journalism:
   #SethAbramson with his #PROOF series of books
   (https://sethabramson.substack.com/about) and

   @davetroy, who has a big following on the #BorgSite, but is here in the #Fediverse with his own #instance, to name but two.

     Oh, absolutely.
     The #hashtag is #GOPHandmaidsTale .

     There was even a pretty good video clip by @MeidasTouch on the #BorgSite in May of 2022:

     It is quite true now or becoming so in many #RedStates.

     @HistoPol @m Good points, and I agree. I wish more people were aware of ALEC's funding, promotion and dissemination of boiler-plate extremist laws to right-wing legislators in the US. Also, it seems like the far-right took Atwood's 'Handmaid's Tale' as a blueprint :( Thanks for additional info! @davetroy @haq
