re: #454 calochortus

I think it does. Whether it is the majority or not, I have heard a lot of interviews with people who truly just seem to have nonspecific anxiety about the world at large.

As I said, I think we can afford to be gracious with people over their loss. This does not mean we have to agree, compromise, give them an inch or anything else. For the most part rubbing people’s faces in the dirt does not convince them they are wrong.
Graciousness does not imply that they are right, or that we quit working for social justice.

I see your point here, but the counter point is that voting for Trump is not the kind of thing that we can allow to be airbrushed away as some kind of anxiety attack.

If that kind of history revision ends up happening, all it does is set us up for more of this dangerous crap.
