present-day

The parallels to our present-day politics are laughably clear.

“It just seems really appropriate because it ties in present-day immigrant communities with the longer history of Mexican immigrant communities.”

If present-day Americans are deemed uniquely vulnerable to political propaganda, it is not as if they have no choice in the matter, unlike the people of North Korea.

Just like the kibbutz movement of collective farms in the 1920s and 1930s inside present-day Israel, settlements in the occupied territories after 1967 were strategically placed as a first line of defence.

None of this, however, has been able to stave off Seoul’s own present-day housing affordability crisis.
