Yes, it has been a disappointing 18 months.

What (potentially) disappoints me is sitting and wondering whether what we really have been witnessing is the surfacing of the true nature of human beings? Mind you, we live in the USA... for decades I have held that "The Power of Apathy" is the greatest force in the culture. People "protest" things that don't really matter, while blithely sweeping more significant issues under the rug. Mostly, apathy rules. Nothing really changes, because apathy rules.

Not very positive, I know...
