"The erosion of freedom rarely happens overnight; it's written into law, one ruling at a time."
"ACLU's Chase Strangio lays bare how the U.S. legal system is failing its people under a growing wave of authoritarianism and systemic rollbacks of civil liberties."
Freedom erodes gradually through legal processes, accumulating via successive rulings and statutory changes rather than sudden events. Courts and laws can systematically reduce protections, allowing civil liberties to be rolled back incrementally. The U.S. legal framework currently enables patterns of authoritarian consolidation by codifying restrictive measures one decision at a time, producing tangible harms to people's rights and democratic norms. Awareness of legal pathways for rights erosion underscores the need for vigilance and institutional safeguards. A separate announcement states the early-rate deadline for Fast Company's World Changing Ideas Awards is Friday, November 14, at 11:59 p.m. PT; interested parties should apply promptly.
