  • “We face opposition, we should just give up.” Great thinking there. Don’t be so weak-willed. If you believe you have no options, there no options shall there be.

    Yes, we face overwhelming odds. Yes, the rich have outsized power. But if all you do is go “welp, nothing I can do, may as well spend the day jerking off”, then you can’t expect change. Change doesn’t come easily either. It takes decades to build a movement, but a movement can’t be built off of “meh, why try? my self-fulling prophecy of doing nothing leading to no change is being fulfilled”.

    Stop doing their work and speading hopelessness. You can be more than that.


  • USAians don’t have options? That has to be a joke. During the presidential elections, they had Bernie for decades, they had Warren for a long time too, and they had many others - that’s only at the national level. At the local level they still have many options.

    USA isn’t the only country with options making dumb choices. Germany, France, Denmark, Sweden, Hungary, Poland, Czechia, Spain, Italy… we don’t suffer from a lack of options. We suffer from a lack of unwillingness and understanding to choose those options.
