Well. I dont think empathy is bad. Its not a principle I can abandon. I dont get to shape the world the way I want it, either. Most of us really only get small chances to tip the scales. I dont think any presidential votes I cast in the last 8 years mattered. I dont think there is a world where they could matter. Ill keep voting though, and try to tip the scale.
The world I want, the empathic world I imagine, is not a world I will most likely get to live in. So, if its a good idea and I dont give up on it, surely it can only win because its good. Whether or not I get to see it is beyond my control.
This is all lost in the weeds, though. Youre in the right place because youre thinking of ways to stop trump. That’s notable. You’re also considering things we can do in the immediate future. All good too. So which path actually happens or whatever, just remember, you’ll course correct that one too.
