The atmosphere is so heated, and the statements are getting more and more extreme. Let’s just assume Harris wins the election. After a campaign like this, how could you ever have a normal relationship with your pro-Trump neighbor/father-in-law/Uncle/Barber or what ever again?
I’m optimistic in the future generations, yes. And you’re right, at any given moment, there’s a bell curve that can describe the way people are for an event or a trend or an age. I suppose I see the younger generations as moving the curve along an axis toward a better world.
I may very well turn out to be wrong. But I’ll be dead by then.
I was the generation we were hopeful for. All we’ve done is stall. We got Obama elected… and that’s about it.
We need a plan that’s better than “wait it out”. That one tends to fail.
