I fought hard... I struggled until I broke parts of myself that have never healed.

All I heard was, "go along to get along"... and crickets.

Now, it's worse.

I'm thinking the zeitgeist is everything will be okay. They won't succeed. We will win in the end.

Pardon me, if I'm highly skeptical of any sort of "Better" from this point. Not for the middle class.

I agree with you. I hold out hope that there will eventually be a reckoning for these purveyors of hate. But that will be cold comfort after all the damage done.

Never ever underestimate the awesome power of the stupid and corrupt.

it seems as if we continually underestimate them.

we are all pretty dead in the water. Skinner said all the evidence he has seen is not compelling. I think I share so many's feelings of powerless, but we need a smoking gun and need it fast.

Interestingly, this requirement has never bogged the extremists down in their big lies.

I suppose it's due to yelling them loudly enough and long enough.
