 people will generally go about their daily lives as if nothing has changed so
 long as nothing for them has changed.
 
 If you want to compel action, their lives must be made different somehow. Even
 if that's just... talking to them outside of the grocery store. A little bit
 can go a long way.
 
 And when they do end up acting, I think you'll find that it's in your favor.
 We're the good guys, after all.

 nothing you do on the internet will matter after the revolution. I don't care
 how many backups you have, there's a zero percent chance that we'll be able to
 figure out whose computer is whose after we've all moved around and given each
 other names that don't correspond to the names of our family in states that we
 lost.
 
 it doesn't mean the internet is useless right now, it just means that you
 should act as if you might not have it in the near future.
 
 also, like... every computer has a password. which basically means that it's
 useless unless you reflash it.
 
 pain is temporary, and it is an excellent teacher. there will be pain, but...
 we'll get over it.
 
 don't give up. there are brighter things in our future than what we have today.

 ah, well, maybe it's just perception bias. When things leave your timeline
 (temporarily or permanently) they take their inertial influence with them.
 It's okay to mourn the loss of a friend, of a relic, or an opportunity. So
 long as you continue to nurture light, life, and hope wherever you go, the
 magic will return and continue to flow. If you believe that, then you know
 what faith is. easy enough...

 conservatives are digging their own grave by not taking their place among our
 ancient past. it is the duty of the young to replace the old. conservation
 implies utilization, and yet they cling to the past like a scarce resource
 that won't last.
 
 ... spend culture, ya dummies, something infinitely replicatable, rather than
 materials like gas. nobody cares if you live your life as you'd like off in a
 post-scarcity world. who cares, if everyone's got what they need, then why
 would anyone bother fighting? why bother working? why bother living - oh I see.
 
 right well that's why I say: "we're all falling leaves, in the waves of the
 ocean - going faster and faster, till our hearts will stop. so, what's the
 point in trying at all? well, what's the point in giving up?"
 
 if you don't want to strive, if you don't want paradise, then what do you
 want? go get it! it's your life to live, we're here with you, so what's
 stopping you from existing?

 And now, several months after I made this post, I feel no less inspired. From
 within me burns a fire and I cannot restrain it any longer.
 
 Their numbers are not that much larger. We have many advantages they do not
 possess. Use them to your advantage, but do not neglect the necessary losses.
 Fight back with your fists if you must, but do try and fight back with your
 purses.
 
 We are all in this together, each child woman and man. We live on a planet
 together, and they have forced us to fight for our very lives.
 
 Our fates are calling. We will get stronger. We will overcome.
 
 They are at their zenith. We can only get higher. Fight until the last day!
 Today is the day to be inspired.

 I know it's terrible right now, but we have crucial advantages that we
 shouldn't sleep on.
 
 We have the cities, and the cities are where everything is. Rural areas are so
 spread apart they pretty much can only do what herr Hitler suggests they do,
 meaning their command structure is monolithic. If everywhere needs their
 attention, they will falter unless they create a grand battleplan. And plans
 are defeated by rapid flexibility.
 
 The more effort they need to counter you, the more work your allies can get
 done. Every man woman and child who raised a fist will be remembered by the
 moments that gave us grace to move socialism along. We know what time it is,
 do you? Come to us now, flee from your new masters. We'll give you a job
 that'll help us go faster.
 
 Or do you rather persist in vain? To fight for what they are forced to
 reclaim? Every island of blue in the deep red sea is a haven from the
 bloodshed - so long as you can keep them clean.

 peace is on the opposite side of conflict. Not here with the unfair.
 peace is eternally elusive only to those who are use-ed.
 peace is eternally internal next to those who are lucid.
 peace is necessary. peace is useful. peace is helpful. peace is beloved.
 
 peace is not always there. it is skittish, like an alley cat, but it will come
 if you make offerings.
 
 offer peace to me. I will nourish thee.
 offer war to me. I will devastate all who see me.
 
 there comes a time when all foes become blind, when your motives are no longer
 part of their story.
 at that time, they are lost to you, and they are only confused as to the
 things you do.
 they may heal in time.
 there may not be time.

 sacrifice them on the altar of tragedy,
 I will bane your broken resolutions
 I will claim your darkest allusions.

 the more they have to do to make us declare war, the worse it'll be for their

 can do to convince them otherwise weakens their media weather.
 
 who cares about trans executive orders. they are our enemy, what else is new?
 they have power now, and they will try what they can. This is like taking the
 internet away from chinese citizens and instituting a national intranet
 instead. Like, okay, we won't be able to get estrogen from the store. Who
 cares? We'll just make our own.
 
 If people actually care about us, which they overwhelmingly do, there's very
 little materially they can do.
 
 until they're further down the "first they came for..." list. then they'll
 come for us liberals, and gosh wouldn't that just be the worst. Who is there

 listen, judges are useful character moralities, but they don't have to be the
 only ones to decide things.
 
 I mean, if they disagree, then let the one who cares the most about it have
 the decision-making power.
 
 if you do this equally for everything, then everyone will get what they want.
 
 so, like, if you care about something, then believe in it.
 
 if it's truly good, then more people will come to it, and it'll naturally
 extinguish (with care and love) the least favored approach, which... honestly
 now that I think of it is not such a good approach either.
 
 the reason I say that is because it's good to be multi-faceted, and to have
 general flows and rough surfaces.
