Give up, they are idiots, there's nothing to be done, we cannot win, no movement can be generated, they hate their own freedoms, we need to despise them, give up, all there is to do is to feel superior while shaking our oh-so-knowing heads and saying tsk, tsk, no one has ever seen surprising political shifts occur, much less shockingly quick ones, everyone saw 1963/64 and 1967/68 coming in 1958, it was obvious and everyone was filled with hope. There is no potential immanence in contradiction, Americans feel no cognitive dissonance, the yahoos stand for us all! Give up!
