"In America, our ideological conflicts are often understood as the tension between individual freedoms and collective actions. The failure of our pandemic response policy exposes the falseness of that frame. In the absence of effective state action, we, as individuals, find ourselves in prisons of risk, our every movement stalked by disease. We are anything but free; our only liberty is to choose among a menu of awful options. And faced with terrible choices, we are turning on each other, polarizing against one another. YouTube conspiracies and social media shaming are becoming our salves, the way we wrest a modicum of individual control over a crisis that has overwhelmed us as a collective."
 


I just want Dems to fight tooth and nail for the people instead of trying to be "fair" to the GOP. If your goal is to keep your suit clean, you can't possibly do that if you're willing to wrestle with a pig. Being the bigger person can work on an individual level, but doing this same thing time and time again will just embolden the GOP to do worse
