The fucking difference -- between the candidates and dueling ethos -- really is that simple.   It's an ethos of We vs. Me.  Within that We are individuals, with identity and sacred rights, but the We exists in the same space.  A zero-sum society is a shit place to be.

It's interesting how apt the above are no matter how the future was to  play out. They say something astute and important about what we reject or what we embrace.  They seem to be parody, which was my reaction when I first saw them, but they are mostly founded in obvious truth. They seem genuinely brilliant to me now.

I'd returned to thread to recall how I cringe at cartoons like the below:

The happy assumption about a world so basically good that it will spit out an enemy to liberty cloys as a prediction or statement of the moment. It would have been solid enough this morning had Trump been rejected. I suppose there is some value in reminding me that I'm an idiot for expecting something similar to the image.

I guess I come here and write at length because I'm shell-shocked and not quite sure where to turn my mind. How can all of this be?

You aren't an idiot, you just weren't in touch with the will of the people.

Women voting against their rights.

Men voting against the women in their lives rights.

Blacks voting for racism.

Latinos and other non-white races voting for their own deportation.

Everybody voting against social security, medicare & medicaid.

And the gop  not at all worried about voter fraud.

Women voting for their spaces and sports

Men voting for women's spaces and sports

Blacks voting against money and housing going to illegals 

Latinos choosing to not vote based on their own racist desires and instead opting to see the big picture 

let's see how that goes

The second part is certainly true. That's pretty much my point. I expected more.
