The undue influence of Big Pharma, undue influence of the NRA, undue influence of Big Oil, undue influence of big chemical companies & Big Ag, undue influence of health insurance companies, and undue influence of the military industrial complex is literally killing Americans.

Just don't see any hope in sight of anything changing. I am in my mid 30s now and I have increasingly became more negative about everything. What you mentioned, we all know it is bad but it just keeps getting worse. Cornel West says America is a "failed social experiment"

No, that’s what they want you to feel! Don’t go there! It’s a psychological battle more than anything. We can make it better. Abolitionists got there, the suffragettes got there, the civil rights movement got there, and we’re gonna get there.

Thank you for the encouraging words Marianne. I'm still in this fight even when it feels tough!

Right-wing negativity is intended to turn off people from politics or exasperate people such that they just say “Both parties are the same.” As long as the GOP coalition of single-issue zealots has more people than those others still politically engaged, they can win elections.
we need in-person social clubs and communities that are not based on consumption, distraction, or career networking etc. we need to restore real connection with a new faith

Yes I’m sure many in the 1% feel things will get better and they have all the time in the world to wait for it.
