Outrage + Optimism

NOTE

Extreme views lead to dangerous government

Extreme views without any tempering can result in a dangerous government if those in power are at the same extreme level. The speaker mentions the significant risks of electing such extreme individuals who are not willing to moderate their behavior, potentially leading to a dangerous government. The reference to a promised dictatorship under a specific E1 further emphasizes the concerning nature of such potential leadership. Additionally, the mention of a video by Margaret Atwood underscores the warning signs of a dictatorship and serves as a stark reminder of the consequences of unchecked extremism in government.
