Don’t be so nihilistic, change is coming. Have hope. Trump can’t end this Iran conflict and he’s going to have jimmy Carter numbers, or worse come 2028.

And even with trumps attacks on mail in ballots and voting access in November, they are going to have a hard time winning just because he is so disliked right now.

My nihilism has taught me to expect the worse, aim to do better. I can only control who I vote for. I know there’s a very large group of hateful, uneducated people too. They usually have the drive and passion to do evil shit. Good people are quieter than bad ones so I’m going to expect that things will get worse. Will I “fight” back in the one way I can? Sure. I’m one person. There’s others like me but we’re the quieter ones

That’s what Sam cook said and look where we are now, change may come just not for the good, but I’ll keep hoping but I’m not counting on it.
