Comment on we live in a world where a pedophile is president. but things are only getting worse. is activism even worth it any longer? it seems like we've hit an apex or wall here. i feel like being selfish.

I think things are getting worse faster because the people in power know the cat’s out of the bag. They’re trying to grab everything they can and to fortify themselves against the backlash they know is coming for them.

We have these midterms and then the Presidential election in a couple years. Unfortunately, things will get even worse before they get better. But if we aren’t building the power to actually seize opportunities when they arise, we’ll fail to recover at all. Organizing is the best thing we can do.
