Our current political environment has changed what’s important to everyone.
For some it may be human rights, such as Black Lives Matter, #MeToo, health care, immigration, etc. For others it’s simply a win on their tally sheet regardless of the widespread effects that win may have on local and worldwide societies.
It’s an environment where some think science is a belief, religion is a fact and vice versa. Where the words I’m speaking out of my mouth or typing through my fingers are truth because I simply believe them to be.
The trick is to know how to create “trigger” words or phrases and use them.
