51 m. ago Where is our Tiananmen square ‘Tank Man’ who can stand up to Trump? | Corey Robin

The reason we don’t see that person is because we’re asking the wrong questionEveryone’s waiting for that one person to stand up to Donald Trump. Not just that one person. There are a lot of such people. You can read about them in every newspaper. But that one person with real power who’s willing to risk something costly in defiance. That one university president who’ll say, fuck you and your money. That one Democrat who’ll say, fuck you and your threat to my re-election or that of my party. Everyone’s looking for our Tank Man, staring down a column of tanks, all by himself, in Tiananmen Square.Why don’t we see that person? Where is our Tank Man? (And, no, I don’t think Cory Booker doing a marathon-length filibuster counts.)When you’re thinking of becoming a hero, you feel like a slob. You feel, do you really have a right to do that?Corey Robin is the author of The Reactionary Mind: Conservatism from Edmund Burke to Donald Trump and a contributing editor at Jacobin.

2 h. ago Leading the charge: how a drive for electric vehicles is cleaning up Nepal

With air pollution causing a fifth of deaths in Nepal, growing EV use could add nearly three years to Kathmandu residents’ livesIn a rundown hangar in the heart of Kathmandu, the remains of a dozen electric trolley buses stand abandoned and corroding.
