Yes, it is increasingly difficult not to feel ashamed/appalled at being human. Not just Trumpism, but climate change, racism, sexism, on and on and on. The only sense I can make of it all is that humans simply evolved for another reality. Our adaptability is now killing us because we adapt too easily to "new normals" of deteriorating ecological realities and irrational political discourse. Human tribalism prevents us from seeing the larger picture. Anyone who does sincerely look at what is happening...runs the risk of feeling a terror that tends to shut down higher reasoning, and further encourage fight or flight responses. As a species we have proved ourselves superbly adapted at "survival of the fittest" against all species and all environments...except against against ourselves, our own "civilization", and our own Nature.

I just heard a historian talk about how even all the gerrymandering, making it harder to vote in many states, disqualifying valid votes, getting judges to overturn rights, and they still don’t have enough votes. So now they have now changed their tactics. The biggest voting block that turned blue was suburban women, so they know the best way to get their votes back was to tell them that the dems are coming for their kids. I guess time will tell, but I’m hoping suburban women are way smarter than that, in spite of Moms for Liberty 😡
