God Willing We Will Move On

It is as though classes of people, a majority of all people of every class, care more about truthiness than truth, about disparaging others than facts, about their superstitions and other irrational beliefs than justice and equity, and about finding simple but unworkable solutions in the interest of feeling better. Partisanship and irrational religious faith seem to teach people that the truth is black/white, hot/cold, yes/no when the truth is infinite. The portraits and characterizations of people in Hillbilly Elegy and other social generalizations seem to overlook the fact that anyone can see past how they feel about a person or situation and instead examine them or that situation more deeply. God willing the people of earth will start to move in that direction one day.
