Living with the Long Emergency

By Tim Stevenson. Forget 'No Kings' — 'No Dictator' rings like a clear bell.

The No Kings event, predicted to be "the largest peaceful protest in modern US history", is not named correctly, in my opinion. It should be more accurately called "No Dictator".

We are on the crest of becoming a full-blown dictatorship, and nothing less than a full-throated expression of opposition by we the people to the authoritarian machinations of Donald Trump is required.

Author's summary: The No Kings event should be called No Dictator.
