This was too much for me today. I think I’ve just honestly given up hope. People treat this country like they are sports fans. They pick a side and ignore every ugly and destructive element about their “team”.
How do we do that when little children are being shot? When babies can’t be fed? When older people are gunned down just shopping for groceries? And on and on and on….
After the last many years of watching how all parties and their followers have behaved, I cannot imagine a country or a world where anything gets resolved or we become in any way united. It’s sickening, and where I used to feel hope, I no longer do.
We have created this nightmare. We are the monster.
This is not hyperbole anymore. It is a sad reality.
