Fear and hate is what has gotten us here. This is why life is as we know it. Afraid of something? Take the easy way and be against, or hate, it. People are so lazy, too lazy to even try to tolerate one another. It’s easier to parrot headlines and social media posts than it is to read an article from a trusted source. It’s easier to watch 5 second videos than it is to look up and see what is going on. It’s not just the next 4 years. This new rhetoric is here to stay. When Trump inevitably dies, the party will just move forward with this lunacy. We all may as well get used to it.
