[Please read the entire article - it is very thoughtful and informative. With her record on Gaza and Lebanon, voting for Harris will be difficult for millions in the US. --PL]

I think I get the idea. It's bleak and you feel like there's nothing you can do to change what's happening. I'm sorry you feel that way and maybe at some point things will change for the better. That's how I keep pushing forward, just looking forward to what might be in the future. During the Obama administration it felt like we were actually becoming better as a nation, more accepting of others and their differences, more willing to reach out to our neighbors. The only way I see things starting to get better again is to squash this notion that it's somehow ok to polarize the whole nation to hate each other, and maybe then we'll be able to start trying to help others again. Hope keeps us going.
