The road to dystopia is paved with sanguine dismissal of what occurs before our very eyes. It is disbelief of what we see happening because the affront on our sensibilities is too difficult to believe. It starts with denial; the distrust of facts. Denial is rampant among us now. Many deny climate change. They deny the genocide of Native Americans and Jews; they believe that vaccines are uniformly dangerous despite the eradication of disease; They believe that slavery was good for “happy darkies,” and that Trump identifies with working class people. We cannot be complacent. Resistance must be constant, colllaborative and unrelenting. Failure is not an option.#TrumpianDystopia
