Sinopsis

Elections, and civic life in general, are systemic. Blaming individuals, or profiles of individuals, for political outcomes is like blaming drops of water for a sneaker wave. We do a terrible job thinking about systems, because simple explanations comfort us, and because the information age inflates our sense of our own influence. Addressing systemic phenomena and trying to manage them requires patience and deep investigation, which is not the most comforting option.
