No, he is not. Gentle and mild? No. A man who punches down, whose scorn is for the weakest and admiration is for only the strongest. A man of little personal virtue, and of even less thoughtfulness. And most cruelly, professes that his favourite book says “And you are to love those who are foreigners, for you yourselves were foreigners in Egypt.” and yet acts as though the opposite directive had been given.

I don’t share your hopeful sentiments but I’m very glad there are people like you who do.

“Good people believe
In the evil he speaks.”

No they don’t.
Ignorant bigots believe in the evil he speaks. Good people see through the lies.

You’ll have to forgive me, I just watched the Devo doc on Netflix. I think they were much closer to the truth - we are devolving. Fast.
