What Remains for Us?
The Present Moment
The present moment is marked, above all, by unrelenting nihilism.
We have reached the point where middle class families, those who likely felt the hope and progress in their own material pursuits, cannot imagine a stable world for their own children to grow into. On one hand, the political climate of America has truly fractured, and we find ourselves in a society that politicizes science, as shown during the pandemic. Although we live in a democracy, this polarization has gone to the point where a non-negligible amount of constituents, both Republican and Democrat, have little faith that presidential elections were fairly counted.
