Since the 2016 Presidential Election, I’ve seen much that I find distasteful in how people are treating others, both on the news and my personal Facebook feed. Whether it’s people on the winning side acting like poor winners, taking a victory lap, or others, acting like poor losers, spewing hate and vitriol at the winners and their supporters.
I’m hearing from multiple people that they’re ignoring Facebook and Twitter, or they’re actively unfriending people because of the hate filling their timelines. I can’t blame them–they’ve been alienated, and they’ve taken a positive action.
I’m an author living in northern Virginia with a wife and a cat. In the late ’80s, I worked on the International Space Station project. I recently retired from managing a group of software engineers to focus on writing science fiction and speculative fiction. Learn more.
