If we fall into despair, that is how they win. Encourage others and yourself to be the change you want. They fail when we refuse to give up.
Anyway Josh Johnson is a cool dude, just wanted to share this

Never thought we’re cooked. Just losing a lot down to the most minimal. I’m only wondering how we get back up to the level of prosperity and stopping the very forces that put us there in the first place.😤

Thing is, we can say and know we're cooked, but we still keep fighting.
Still keep offering resistance here and there. Gum up the works.
And when the chance comes to turn shit around, you take it.

The Rich and powerful WANT people to give up. They want to feed the doomerism, and hate when people protest and come together to act.

Yeah dude. Calculus of effort. If you can't do The Thing™ today, you don't have to. If you have 100 points to spend today but you have a 150pt day? Triage. Pick where the points go. Nobody's done yet just cuz they don't have enough points today. I'm not giving up, you guys gotta not give up with me

I honestly think we WOULD be better off "ruined"- because that lets build something BETTER in the ashes!

Wasted he saw something moving in the bush and drunkenly jumped into the bush and grabbed it. It was a Leprechaun. I caught you Leprechaun, yoze give me wishes! Leprechaun ok, you can have one wish. One! I'm supposed to get three! It's a recession the

Leprechaun said. Ok, for my wish I want the world to get one big kick in the ass. The Leprechaun was like, what? A BIG OL KICK IN THE ASS. Ok, that'll take a bit but the wish will be granted. The dude passed out then woke up and went to friends house convincing himself it didn't actually happened. Later that day BOOOM. Fucking there was a shockwave that hit the world. Everything was in disarray. Holy shit this is because of me the dude thought. And felt terrible. After the chock wore

off he started to do what he could to help people, as other people were doing the same. Homes were rebuilt, lives restored and it ended up better than before. People helped everywhere they could and the world became a better one. He never told a sole of what he did.
