We don't despair

I know it's hard to look past the insanity, the ignorance and stupidity of this awful timeline we currently live in but we need to try and find hope. Human beings don't change but their circumstances do and it can put focus on our worst aspects and magnify them. 

This era is anti-science and anti-intellectual. Experts are discounted and the opinion of idiots supercedes them which is very difficult to process if you were brought up with critical thinking and common sense as guiding principles. 

We don't just live with stupidity, we openly celebrate it which is why we are seeing the worst parts of humanity take front and center in our everyday life. Complete idiots fight for who can debase themselves the most while many of us look on in horror. 

Historically this tends to happen at the end of a cycle where chaos reigns until a new order is restored. It's as if a massive tantrum is required before the rest of us are fed up and reign in the excess. 

The new Superman movie is being hailed as woke by a radical right who need something to feed their daily outrage. The crime of the film is to play up the kindness and goodness of a character that used to represent American values but this incarnation flies in the face of their current cruelty and their stupidity and once again they are up in arms. 

The stupidest timeline.
