JASON KELCE AND A DEVILISH QUESTION FOR US ALL: HOW TO RESPOND TO HATE?

When the world provokes us — and it will, especially now — sometimes we need to
just keep walking.

Over the coming days, weeks, months and, Lord knows, even over the next four
years, hate, and those who dwell in its dark recesses, will feel emboldened.
That emotion will crawl out from the sewers of social media and into the
daylight of real life, feeling protected as if marching with a battalion of
millions. And if we’re not careful, we might look at hate just gloating there,
face screwed up in a snarky smirk, and decide in all its swelled-up pride —
whoops! — that hate has left its chin uncovered to a potential clean right hook.
While it’s never productive when provocation leads to punches, maybe that’s
exactly what it wants.
