    Hey man, you can’t be a reasonable person on the left anymore, didn’t you get the memo? The groupthink is now all about screeching for the blood of our Enemies (countrymen). If you don’t want every Trump voter taken out back and shot, you aren’t welcome in the Revolution™

      at least there’s still Stoic philosophy keeping it real….

        Stoicism should not be a shield to guard you from reality. Acknowledge those things that you cannot control, that many people do in fact suck, and focus on the choices you can make. We know people suck, and that history tells us they can suck a whole lot harder. You can accept defeat, tell yourself nothing can be done and resign yourself to whatever consequences may come from that, or?
