My fellow Americans: I feel like I need to say this.
A
lot of you are angry. You're concerned about what's going on right now,
and you're worried about the future. You're disgusted by the actions of
your political opponents, and you feel hope and anticipation whenever
there's the slightest possibility that their goals will be thwarted.
You're filled with dread when they're winning, and you're lifted into
paroxysms of joyous schadenfreude when they fail.
Good
news: Those feelings are all you need! If there was ever a time in
American history when it was worthwhile to pay attention to facts and
evidence, those days are over. Thanks to the cutting-edge technology of
the early 21st century, choosing to go with your gut has never been
easier or more effective. Name the outrage, and you're just a click away
from the corresponding mob.
But
let's back up for a minute. Let's say, just for the purposes of
example, that you really wanted Hillary Clinton to be elected president
in 2016. You didn't care what anybody said about her, because that just
proved they were terrified of a strong, independent woman who blazed a
trail through American history by marrying a guy who later got elected
president. You were devastated when she lost because it confirmed your
belief that this country hates women.* The pussy-grabber defeated the
pussy-possessor, and it plunged you into despair. Nothing could ever be
good again. The evil Republicans were well on the way to transforming
America into The Handmaid's Tale. All hope was lost.
