The narrative didn't seem all that conservative to me -- it attacks conservatives at least as much as liberals, and concludes that the election of DJT is the present culmination of the trend. I do take issue with pulling trigger warnings in here (though, in fairness, that was a minor part in the article), just because it's re-enforcing a very negative trend. Trigger is a term of art in psychology, related to post-traumatic stress disorder. It specifically refers to a stimulus triggering a fight-or-flight response in a situation where it would not be called for in someone without PTSD. We should be giving this clinical issue the respect it deserves, and not conflating it with the things we are more abstractly afraid of.
