American political thought is marred by either-or thinking. This way of thinking has nothing to do with ableist notions of intelligence, that "life of the mind" which elites think will save us, but instead has everything to do with life of the heart. Not everything is a trolley problem. In the words of Thich Nhat Hanh, "One arrow can save two birds at the same time—if the arrow strikes the branch, both birds will fly away." How will you shoot your arrow?
