Amen. It feels like the gun control debate after a mass shooting: "Too soon to talk about it. We're all in mourning."

We NEED to talk about this. We can STILL VOTE FOR BIDEN and call out the fucking failures in our system.

Unfortunately, nuance and discourse don't exist in the minds of most people. So, fucking whatever.

Nuance and discourse were brutally slaughtered in front of all of us in 2016.

Yeah, we're a little touchy about it.
