- More about Taking Control!: Humanity and America after Trump and the Pandemic

From the mind of Anthony Barnett, the visionary creator and former editor-in-chief of openDemocracy, emerges a scorching response to the clash between Trumpism and Biden in America. This profound essay delves into the very essence of our collective future, laying bare the stakes that hang in the balance. On the 6th of January 2021, a momentous event unfolded as Donald Trump attempted to seize the presidency of the United States through forceful means. His ulterior motive? To solidify his nativist rule and consolidate power. Tens of millions of Americans stand behind him, rallying behind his vision.
In response, Joe Biden's administration has pledged a monumental economic transformation, while a fierce battle rages over voter suppression. This pivotal contest holds the key to shaping the destiny of humankind. As the future unfolds through the lens of the world's most powerful nation, Barnett takes a moment to reflect on the narrow range of possible outcomes. He reveals that the frustration of Trumpism stems from decades of resistance to market fundamentalism, yet it remains fragmented and incoherent. It is high time for the left to embrace an open, ecological politics, for the world to resist the dominance of the Iron Men and their successors.
The stakes are indeed high, and the time for action is now. The future of humanity hangs in the balance, and we must seize every opportunity to shape a world that is fair, just, and sustainable. Let us rise above the divisions and forge a path toward a brighter tomorrow.
