NBC News "dystopia beat" reporter Ben Collins announced that he was leaving journalism next year, despite having no skills. He did suggest that he had a big story coming on Elon Musk, though when he sat in with Joy Reid, he just said that Musk was "turning Twitter into a haven for bigotry."
Speaking of bigotry, how about Islamophobia?
The post-9/11-style generalized Islamophobia and bloodlust coming from people I thought I respected this week has been unbelievably shocking and jarring.

Yeah, seeing Jewish students barricading themselves in the university library to escape a pro-Hamas mob pounding on the doors was unbelievably shocking and jarring.
Collins is back offering us more wisdom from the dystopia beat:
There’s no take-backs on fascism, no easy undo button. You don’t get a do-over on both-sidesing the big ol whoopsie of mass suppression and cruelty. Not adequately portraying the threat is both awfully short sighted and almost always viewed as complicity in the eyes of history.

From the one ignoring these steps being taken by the Biden administration. https://t.co/l7JVDCaCwD

Thank you for coming out so forcefully against government censorship, Big Tech suppression of dissent, and the ruthless weaponization of government to silence and jail President Biden’s political enemies. You are right: there are no take-backs on this unadulterated fascism.

Then why do you fight for it daily Ben?

What the hell are you talking about?

Have you looked in the mirror Ben. Objectively, you have described yourself and your progressive friends

Is this a confession?

Glad to see you acknowledge the DNC's culpability. There may be hope for you yet!

You're such a ridiculous bore.

Is the fascism in the room right now?

The easy button is to work for a government sponsored outlet and just start calling anybody you don’t like a fascist

I'm so happy I don't have to go through life with your brain.

The end of the year is approaching … will Collins leave "journalism"? We don't even know what he does at NBC News; he publishes a piece like every five months.
