I fear our society is too damaged to repair

24. I catch your drift.

I both agree and disagree to an extent.

It a lot of ways, our country is better, but in some ways it's wildly different, and worse.

In my mind, the major difference boils down to this: I now think that a significant percentage of people in this country are either clinically insane, dead stupid, or both.

I never had that perception years ago. Of course, that doesn't mean that it wasn't the exact same way years ago, I'm just talking about my perception here.

That being said, we've come a long way regarding human rights issues, but sometimes it feels like were starting to go backwards again. Not moving forward in these issues, in my opinion, means the same thing as moving backwards. Our current presidential leadership is moving forward in big ways. But our country as a whole? Not so much.
