    As a white progressive American who is 58, I felt like America was fucked starting in about 1980. Of course, any black person could tell you that it was fucked from about 1600 on.

    I'd estimate that two-thirds of the country wants to do the right thing and help fight the pandemic, but that only half the country is smart enough to hold the current administration responsible for the things they've done and not done to make this worse. We're dumb fucks and we deserve what's happening to us.
