Resistance Outrage 3.2.26

Our Pavlovian Response to Children Dying

I’m not interested in partisan takes on the latest strike. I’m thinking about something else — the silence. The muted response. The familiarity.

Columbine once shattered us. Now children die in schools, here and abroad, and the reaction feels routine.

This is about conditioning. About desensitization. About what it means when tragedy no longer stops us in our tracks.

We listen for the bell.
