   What feels even worse than the result of the election is that I just can’t envision what the path is to fix any of the conditions that led to this.

   How do you reduce the impact of Fox News? How do you fix an education system broken by design? How do you make someone question their own incuriosity?

     @BenRiceM I also see no path. Especially when intolerance seems to be the central feature of most of this country’s ethos.

     @BenRiceM Yup. i may be wrong but I think we’re in for the largest example of buyer’s remorse a few months into next year as that realization hits people.

     @WarnerCrocker It’s kind of heartbreaking that from this point forward, that’s the best case scenario

     @WarnerCrocker @BenRiceM I don't. This time, anyone who voted for him knew what they were getting. They'll be happy with all the shit that happens to them, as long as some minority is getting it slightly worse than they are.
