Excerpt from tweet thread here:

Well, to paraphrase Heschel, one factor ultimately determines the shape of history - the transcendent response to the nationalist shitshow threatening the entirety of life on Earth. As such, our salvation is necessarily universalist and planetary. As for back yard bombshells...
