Facing Fear and Finding Joy + A Conversation with JoJo From Jerz
Description
Today on Mea Culpa, I’m joined by my good friend JoJo From Jerz, a popular Twitter personality known for her smart, hilarious, and sarcastic political commentary, and host of Are You F'ing Kidding Me? With JoJoFromJerz. JoJo and I dive into the impact of the recent election, focusing on how Trump’s campaign used grievance-driven messaging and conservative media to sway swing voters, particularly young men. JoJo critiques Democrats for avoiding these media spaces, which allowed influencers like Joe Rogan and Charlie Kirk to bolster Trump’s base. We also discuss the rising normalization of hate and nationalism, warning that Trump’s authoritarian rhetoric poses a threat to democratic norms. Together, we emphasize the need for urgent, authentic engagement from Democrats to counter Trump’s influence and guard against a drift toward authoritarianism.
