Opinion:
The history of politics tells us resplendently that when we pick a candidate merely out of anger at a system, ultimate success or not in the contest, we lose –ourselves and our humanistic way.
There is always a fine line between being served and being willingly steered toward others’, not our own, purposes –thus ironically serving them. Part of being human, to navigate being human, is to be used as such by others and not to know the difference. The better, other, part of being human, upon recognizing this problem of misdirection in ones’ navigational sensibility and in others, is learning to correct one’s course before hitting the rocks.
Submerged land ahead is never good news, unless one, in pure hope and hubris, is searching for the lost city of Atlantis.
