"A lie told once remains a lie but a lie told a thousand times becomes the truth." Joseph Goebbels
this is what concerns me about the Trump phenomena and the recent term, "alternative facts". Trump's campaign was run by stirring emotions of hate, bigotry, racism, fear, and scape-goating (Mexicans and Muslims). his policies are divisive, delusional, and sets citizen against citizen. While his core civilian supporters and voters are not the majority, they seem to always get out and vote, and always make the most noise. i am quite angry at my fellow democrats/liberals who didn't vote at all, or who voted third party this time. this was not the election to vote third or cast a protest vote. it was too close, too much was at risk. any progress that has been made for diversity and liberal ideals will be targeted.
if you want progress, we liberal thinkers, whether Green Party, Democratic, Socialist, or other, need to unite to eliminate the stuck- in- the mud, anti-progress Conservative Republicans as they do not represent the majority of Americans in 2017. but at least we will see what happens in a wholly conservative, billionaire old, white male run government and hope we learn from it. but i am quite cynical about it. i have been deemed an "old soul." right now i feel it. i feel as if i am living on the edge pre-Nazi Germany. PLEASE! WE MUST LEARN FROM THE PAST! READ! READ NOT JUST TO PASS TESTS, BUT TO FEED YOUR HEAD!
