You should see the reactions on my students' faces. Mostly pure shock (I teach in Ohio and my students are sharp, mostly politically interested kids).
One asked me, at the end of the semester, "Professor ___, why are you always so bummed out nowadays?" My response: "This is the time of the semester when I have to tell you all about dirty wars, fear, massacres, deaths of children, and rapes of women. Perpetrated by men who were afraid and men who wanted control. It's only human to be depressed by this."
