Hope for change
According to WP, Gere compared history to a pendulum, arguing that periods of political extremes are eventually followed by a return to balance.
“The world works like a pendulum. We’ve been moving towards authoritarianism for some time, but I feel like we’ve reached the limit and are now starting to return,” he said.
Gere also expressed hope that the current period would encourage Americans to learn from the experience and strengthen their sense of responsibility toward one another.
“I hope we come back wiser. That we learn something from this and become better because of this experience. Responsibility for each other can become the foundation of how we learn to live together,” he said.
