Appreciate the kind words! It's a tender time, liberals are both more open and more closed to radicalization, depending on how they are interacted with. Lenin has a fantastic quote:
In shining light on the causes of evil, illustrating ways out of these darker times, and in teaching how to properly struggle against evil, we can radicalize numerous liberals and strengthen solidarity.
I'd say that despair is also common for those of us who have been painfully aware of the causes.
Simply being aware is not enough, we must identify the way out and struggle for it.
