(1,414 posts)I'm not asking you to support them, nor am I condemning you for not. Each of us will walk our own path. To me, I've been in the struggle with the right since Occupy Wall Street days. I was out there, ready to do battle with the right. I was disappointed when many in the leadership of the movement called for peace, and was disillusioned as the democratic leadership condemned the movement, yet I gave peace a chance. For 8 years we gave peace a chance, and what did we get? We got a man in the White House who in no way deserves to be there, who lost the vote of the people AND who is in the White House through fraud. Again, our leaders called for peace and compromise. Compromise with evil? Peace with those who would see our demise? Again, however, I gave peace a chance. Where is it getting us? We worry about dethroning this orange asshole, when in reality a dead stray dog should be able to win an election against trump. We know that the system is fixed, nay, destroyed, yet we put faith in it? That's fine if that the road you want to walk down. Me, I'll take the road less traveled my friend. I have no quarrel with you. I encourage you to continue to engage in the methods that you think are fruitful. I shall do the same.
Peace be unto you.
