that the author seems to consider "imagining new realities" to be such a danger.
If nations are formed by imagined communities, empires create imagined realities. It’s no wonder Trump, someone so capable of imagining new realities, would emerge under the conditions his predecessors created for him.
Back in the spring of 1968, while announcing his candidacy for President, RFK said this, paraphrasing George Bernard Shaw, “Some people see things as they are and say why? I dream things that never were
and say why not?”
Guess we are fortunate he didn't get elected, huh? I was going to say we dodged a bullet, but phrasing.
