I'm feeling my mortality tonight....

[Hortensis]

27. We've made so much progress this century that THAT is what this is mostly about:

Backlash from the losers from change, who as a group and in various ways dropped all decency, humanity, morals, even religion to win at any cost.

Never forget also that enemies like Russia are constantly at work trying to undermine our strength and belief in ourselves, and their insidious effects are strongly reflected in social and other media. But we are still the nation who elected a black president twice and now another principled liberal Democratic president and our first woman VP, who happens to be black and SE Asian in background as well.

77% of Americans approved the #BLM marches for social justice last summer. A solid majority of Americans did and still do want us, via our government, to work together to take care of the unaccompanied children arriving at the border, bring our nation out of the pandemic crisis, AND take strong action to reverse global warming and rebuild our infrastructure, recreating the good jobs we once had in the process.

This is who we are also.
