Reflection on the Election (Updated) 0

Hate sells.

Also, too, Chauncey Devega called it weeks ago.

Addendum:

What is likely to be ignored in the general discourse is that, in the United States of America, a nation founded on chattel slavery and stained by its original sin of racism, everything is ultimately about race. A snippet from Danielle Belton:

The media, and America, will try to hide the fact that America chose a white supremacist as president by claiming his election was about everything except for race. We’ll hear about how uneducated white people felt left behind, and that they were angry. But what they won’t say is that these uneducated white people are angry because they blame the black, Latino, Asian, LGBTQ, and women for demanding that an America that looks like them, act like it respects our humanity.

It took two generations, but now we shall know what a George Wallace presidency might have been like.

Finally, this is website is a hobby. It's a hobby in which I am deeply invested, about which I care deeply, and which has enabled me to learn a lot about computers and computing, but it is still ultimately an avocation, not a vocation; it is certainly not a money-making enterprise (unless you click the "Donate" button--go ahead, you can be the first!).
