Our lives are NOT over. The reality of the next few years is looking bad and we are dealing with a threat we have never experienced, but we have cities and states protecting your rights. We have a slow moving government and inevitable lawsuits, the division of state and federal, a very large diverse and dense country, and a digitally connected and educated (mostly) populace that is not helpless. And we have an entire globe impacted by and invested in our wellbeing. He may have won, but that doesn’t mean their entire agenda is happening, or will be able to happen at all.

We will grieve, we will be enraged, we will be scared, and we will continue to stay hopeful, grounded, and fight for our future.

Hey

Hey Americans.

The federal government is about to get useless for at least a bit. This is a GREAT time to get involved in state level environmental orgs. That's where you're gonna be able to do the most for the next few years. Even a bit of casual volunteering can make a big difference.

I've done this off and on for years and when we go local we WIN. And friends winning feels good. This is how a lot of progressive agendas have won in this country. The whole US isn't out of this. People ARE still fighting climate change all around you.

You could be one of those people, in community with other people who are doing something.

doom and gloom "oooh everything is pointless oooh I'm so deep and edgy because I love trying to be the death of hope" people will just get blocked. I'm not talking to your crab-bucket ass.

i think a lot of liberals need to confront the fact that they don’t actually believe everyone should have basic human rights. a homeless person could call me every slur under the sun and i would still want them to have housing, food, etc. the belief that everyone is entitled to basic human rights should not hinge on whether you “like” someone or not. at that point the entire ideology crumbles.
