No matter what happens - how do we as a country go forward with such a deep rift?

[Doc Sportello]

23. Excellent summation

Of what's happened since Nixon, Reagan and the rest of the amoral assholes. Only now the fascism, misogyny and racism are out in the open.

And, unfortunately, I agree that there really is nothing to be done when it comes to dealing with the MAGAts, their "leaders" and fellow enablers as they march us to the endgame of destroying democracy. Fuck 'em all. Whatever their number is, their goal is to destroy, dehumanize and be as cruel as possible to whoever happens to be in their sights at the moment. I don't know how you create a society, much less a functioning democracy, when a third to half the population follows that sick credo.

And I don't know that there is an answer; sorry, but I don't think there is. To paraphrase Carlin, we're just circling the drain.
