Excellent valuable discuss about the political climate that touches on a few points I think aren’t discussed enough.

I want to break down the talk a little and see if anyone feels like talking politics.   But I’m done for tonight so I leave you with the comment I felt compelled to share back at that link.

The moral of this story >>> we need to do a better job about explaining Trump’s record of lies upon lies, his ruthless fantasizing, his crimes big and small – the pettiness of his ME FIRST mentality and how all it offers is a road to self-destruction.

Recognize we are dealing with a very successful FOX (et al) long term brainwashing campaign – Reaguns and evangelicals and big money and a lot of strategizing and learning about how to manipulate people over the past decades –

We lefties are dealing with amoral people possessed with ruthless self-certainty – yet we do nothing to address that.  Very stupid – if we aren’t changing minds, we are losing.  And they are playing for keeps and possess a visceral hatred that runs deep and should not be ignored!!!

We all need to work harder to figure out how create doubt within the self-certain FOX brainwashed crowd.  That’s the only way to keep our situation from spiraling totally out of control – stop pretending things are automatically going to get saner.  That can only happen if all rationalists, fact-based science loving rationalists, progressives, you know we children of the Intellectual Enlightenment vs. the money/power hungry faith-shackled crowd.
