Remember when the right wing called Michelle Obama a "tranny"? Or when Trump called Obama a foreign agent? And remember just a month ago when the same group of assholes called the survivors of the Parkland shooting "crisis actors"? Or when they called David Hogg "Tide Pod Hogg"?

In Tibetan Buddhism, we have this notion of an enlightened Buddha with mirror-like wisdom. What is it when you look into a mirror? What do we see when we look at a mirror?
