When fascism emerges, color is drained from our landscapes. Conservatism does not lend itself to attention-grabbing clothes, so we fade into neutrals. I can’t help but wonder if our minimalist obsession and grey-colored walls may have lent a hand to the state America is in now.
Social media trends have been no help to combat this. Modesty and homemaking are the new fad, though I fear many women I know and love are not concerned with this reinstatement of an old-school conservatism.
I wonder what their phones are telling them.
