I don’t believe in wonderful and hopeful when accurate is bleak. Feel free to consider solutions to veer the US away from the bad ending, but I’ve been screaming like Cassandra about this when we were torturing alleged terrorists in the 2004. We had many, many chances to change our direction but it meant elected officials choosing to do good rather than get rich, and they chose the latter.
So I have plum run out of faith or hope that they’re going to do better.
If you can offer a more hopeful take that doesn’t involve miracles of conscience or sociological serendipity, please enlighten me, and I’ll look to facilitate that.
Otherwise your hope only redirects the energy of sympathists toward ineffective action while ICE seizes parents, leaving toddlers in the streets.
What a wonderful and hopeful take, all things considered, lol. Thanks for your reply. 🙏
