Thank you, those things have been weighing on me, mostly because I feel powerless to a degree. When I can keep my spirits up, I try approach the things by asking questions in small groups and see change bit by bit. Which seems like an uphill battle, pitted against the mindless wheels of bureaucracy, as someone else here put it, but from time to time and with compassion people (me included) can see the standpoint of others better. It takes time. But much like the "solution" to racism can't be anti-racism, the "solution" to woke can't be anti-woke. We probably all just need a hug.

We definitely all need a hug! The left is driven by anger over the past; the right is driven by fear over the future. And humans are always at their worst when they are angry and afraid. A little faith, a little hope, would go a long way right now.
