After you make your comments you don't feel any better than before. You would be better off to contact your representatives and try to start a conversation about how we can come up with some good solutions for the American people, such as a health care plan, with inputs from all sides, that would actually cover every one of us. Something like that.
On the contrary, I feel better every time I make a comment. In a post-facts political environment, insults are very cathartic.
We should start a conversation? And pray tell, how am I supposed to start a conversation when, thanks to Republicans, the government is controlled by political ideologues that could care less about the people and more about following a flawed and incoherent political philosophy? In a country where Alex Jones could claim the sun is brown and half of what he population would believe him, what good will conversation do?
No, thanks to the political environment the conservatives have created, they've forces liberals' hands so that the best thing that can be done for the people is to obstruct their every move and make sure they're defeated in 2018 and 2020. When one side has become too stupid to recognize basic facts, the time for conversations is over.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
