Tipping Points

Some people might say that Brexit or Donald Trump were tipping points for them. Thousands of civilians and children dying in Iraq and Afghanistan, largely as a consequence of our foreign policy, was my tipping point. Or maybe the way disabled people have been mistreated in our country recently (we must live within our means!). Or depending on how far back you want to go, Hiroshima, Nagasaki and Vietnam. The leader of the opposition represents a meaningful alternative to such events and the attitudes and decisions that led to them, which is why this election matters as much as it does.
