Yes, but the people on the bottom can only do so much. The people with all the money and power don’t care what they leave behind. They’re the ones running the show and pulling the strings.
Self fulfilling destiny. Make them care. Money buys votes but knocking on doors also creates votes. Get off the couch, don’t spread the lazy excuse of “there’s nothing I can do”
I’ve knocked on doors. My husband and I have done get out the vote. We’ve done it in a red area where you feel afraid of who’s going to answer the door.
Human nature is what it is. We adapt quickly and so what should be corrected just become the norm.
Ok, I take back my downvote, you've put some time in, thank you. As long as all of us are always pushing a little, that's all we can do. You deserve to complain & let off steam every once in a while. I still say "hope springs eternal" gets more accomplished, and the opposite is depressing.
Agreed! But then the conversation is about how extreme our measures should be to push back, not an unspoken assumption that we are just going to roll over than die.
