    The distance between us is easier to see in rural America.

    Splitting my time between the montane and the mesas

    The woods are lovely, dark and deep.
    But I have promises to keep,
    And miles to go before I sleep,
    And miles to go before I sleep.

    Yeah, I live in an extremely rural/isolated area of my state. On my travels, I see A LOT of Trump flags, billboards that speak of him as a Savior (which I find unbelievably offensive), pictures of him as Rambo taking out liberals, etc. I keep my opinions to myself in public or in interactions.

    The gulf is wider than some might think. People are far down the rabbit hole. They will do things just to provoke people, like it is a cathartic event for them to be able to make someone else angry. If it gets publicity, so much the better.

    I don't know that I have any solutions but I do think part of the cure is no different than the cause----feed them a message, but this needs to be a message of truth. Will all of them hear it---no, I accept that. Those are the ones who are entrenched in an altered reality, but some will hear it and wake up to the truth.

    The only thing that I am sure of is that we are on a bad road
