What I find interesting is that there are many of us who were traumatized by the religious right who refuse to embrace hate in our responses, so what is the common factor uniting such things?
I think one of the things that has bothered me the most, besides the outright dehumanization of each other that has and is being expressed, is the blatant bastardization of quotes and such by people to further their own personal narrative. Not that it is a new phenomenon, we can just see it on a grandiose, real-time scale now.
And you are right, the world is broken. And that is why we should never stop being a light, as real warmth can make a difference with hurt, and boy there ever is a lot of it!
