Some say we will lose this fight. Or that even if we win, we will fall into the old ways that got us here. Maybe. Maybe not. But one thing is certain. Giving up the fight is not an option. And not giving up is a victory unto itself. Goodnight 💚 - ThreadSky

The ones saying we're losers already lost - be it treason or cowardice. We are only defeated if we stop fighting back.

If it takes five days or fifty years, keep on trying

As a very liberal person who lives in the Bible Belt of bright red rural Missouri, yes. All this. 100%. Blue MAGA is a thing (waiting for the death wishes I get from the loving accepting dem party when I say these observations) and until it goes, and we truly do work with all persons, we’re fucked.

Yes, I live in the 'purple' state of Wisconsin. And, Trump has emboldened MAGA racism & hypocrisy to be public here in many forms, including shouting down anyone who speak up against Trump & MAGA. It's is scary and it is now our reality.

Wasn't it the old CDC who followed Andrew Kolodny of Brandeis's demonization of of pain patients? Made up stats that painted all patients with pain as criminals and addicts?

Dump the old scammers but try not to become the new scammers.

We will have a new generation of leaders coming in. The latch key kids, the tech kids, the loners, the gamers, the ones that barely could afford college, the ones that seem their parents lose everything after 9/11 and again with the housing crash. They are getting fed up, they are ready to fight.

“Beware of entrance to a quarrel, but being in,
Bear't that the opposed may beware of thee.
Give every man thy ear, but few thy voice;
Take each man's censure, but reserve thy judgment.

[…]

This above all: to thine ownself be true”

“The choices we make dictate the life we lead.”

When we make mistakes, let us make them for ourselves, daring greatly, bathed in the audacious thought that a brighter future is coming, if only we have the gumption to build it together.

That brighter future is not perfection, but it’s more perfect than what we have, and that’s an achievable dream

Without serious educational reform in this country, and I'm talking federalization and forcing curriculums on private schools, we will end up here again. This started with segregation academies in the 60's it's be a real long game.

Will we fall into the old ways again? Most assuredly since so many people just want things to go back to how they were 6 months ago. So many are perfectly content with that. If that’s what we go back to, we will wind up here again at some point.

But I’m not stopping the fight. If not me then who?

We will never give up. We will never give in. More strength to you

I may post this near my bedside... a reminder.

We need a new way. National Healthcare. Better, more accurate education. With less pressure. And less guns. Old system, new way of living. Start over, not from scratch. And mandatory reprogramming/brainwashing for all MAGA supporters.
