We can't generally presume to teach other people's kids right and wrong, and opportunities to provide examples for them are limited.

Trump supporters have repeatedly and clearly demonstrated that they are all but impervious to reason, evidence, expertise & fact. Even direct personal hardship inflicted by Trump's policies won't readily sway them.


I don't know how to effect change on a large scale, especially when the effort is likely to be drowned out like a single voice in a grandstand.
