I try to remember that they are fairly normal people who really are doing their best, just like me, my family and friends. But the things they say and do! And the harm is not just to themselves, it's on all of us. What happened to sanity and our shared reality? Fox, Rush and their like is a big part of it...and good old fashioned gullibility I guess.

We are a highly addicted society. We buy and buy into all kinds of distractions. In the meantime, our country is systematically being stolen from us.

Thanks to donald trump though for waking millions of us up. It is up to us woke folks. Needless to say, woke is both a good and necessary thing. Let's make woke a movement. I think our survival depends on it. Woke is not weak. I think it takes great courage to be woke.

Sorry, but these people are not normal and are certainly not doing their best. They cannot think critically and therefore cannot ascertain facts from disinformation. Most of them are either poor or uneducated or both and are breathlessly voting for someone that could very likely take their SS and SSI benefits away. Let's see what fun conversation they'll be having then....

I understand and share your anger, but not your conclusions. I know some of these people and have some in my family. The ones I know are good people who have lost their way. I often doubt their intelligence, but that doesn't mean they're not trying or that they are inferior. Not in my view anyway.
