I have one simple question for the women holding their babies outside the courtroom in support of Lindsay Clancy: What if the roles were reversed? If a father was accused of systematically planning and carrying out the murder of his three kids, would you be protesting in his defense? Do you think men would be there with signs saying, "We stand with you"? Absolutely not. Not only would it take about 10 minutes for that guy to be convicted, I don’t think a single person in America would defend him just because he's a man. And if they did, we’d say the same thing we're saying now: It's pure psychosis. We need to take mental health seriously, but that doesn't mean completely breaking our ability to distinguish right from wrong.

Ryan Reynolds says 80s nostalgia is just "paving over trauma with puppy dogs and ice cream." He’s right that the ’80s were brutal in many ways: Drunk driving, crack, the Cold War hanging over our heads. But he’s missing why we actually miss it. We don’t miss the ’80s because it was safe or easy. We want the UNITY back. 106 million people watched the season finale of M*A*S*H at the same time. That doesn't happen anymore. We all argued over the exact same set of facts, not someone’s “personal truth.” And we remained friends at the end of the day. We had the humility to check our own biases instead of 30% of the country pretending to be "influencers" in an ego-driven feedback loop where every disagreement turns into total war. That’s what we miss about the 80s.
