This is why we grieve....politics
So far, nothing has changed? People have been attacked and injured. People have been frightened. Lots has already changed, and it will get much worse.
Good for Aristotle for not being scared of death. Most everyone else is. I've never died, never been hit by a car, or had my arm run through a wood chipper. I'm still afraid of those things. Anyone with half a brain would be.
It's nice that you make a connection to the Republican party and Al-Anon. But, while we may be forced to sit back and watch loved ones struggle with alcohol or drug addictions without being able to help, politics is not the same. It's participatory. There is much we can do, every day. But since you seem enamored with the next administration, I'm glad you'll be watching, and not taking part.
Aristotle was proven wrong about a great many things. Try Edmund Burke instead: "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing."
My Burke Trumps your Aristotle.

For me, the entire election cycle the past 6 mos or more Has been VERY related to weight issues. My level of stress has been enormous. The level of anxiety, the level of fear, the sense of conflict, the false realities, the discord, the awareness that many of my neighbors might be agreeing with the hateful rhetoric, the need to avoid social media, etc. stress eating, stress eating, stress eating. I had so many days when I wanted to post something like, "stress eating because of the election: is it just me?"
