   Laughter!   
      
   From your story:   
      
   "We’ve been led to believe that things work in a certain way, that   
   there are mores and norms.   
      
   We thought our world was right side up, but it now feels as if it’s   
   been turned upside down.   
      
   Words don’t mean what we think they do. Outrage is followed not by   
   accountability, but by adulation. Standards shift, flicker, vanish.   
   Nothing is stable."   
      
   Well we were told that boys could be girls and that illegals bringing   
   child trafficing were fine under the previous administration.   
      
   You complain NOW??   
      
   Damn you're a fool.
