Yeah, I was thinking less of Marc specifically and more about the general philosophical dilemma of how to deal with these people. We spend so much time struggling to understand their thinking, hanging out in Texarkana diners and the like, only to find again and again that thinking is what they don't do. They're like Pez dispensers belching out pre-packaged resentments, racist dogwhistles and conspiracy theories— different faces, same crap.
