If you’re feeling like nothing is gonna happen please hear me out here
I’m really tired of hearing people say, “It’s so over! We’re doomed!” Letting yourself think like that gives the opposition exactly what they want. It’s not good for your mental health, it’s not helpful, and it’s not reality. You’re trying to cope with what you’re seeing, but you’re failing to put the pieces together, failing to listen to others, and refusing to hold onto the hope that’s being offered.
If you’ve been paying attention, you’d know there’s a lot happening. For example, there’s a significant deadline around Jan 19 (possibly tied to EO 13848—please confirm or help me understand which legal proceedings I saw that from). The silence we’re seeing isn’t weakness; it tells me that this is serious, likely national security-related, and they’re keeping a tight lid because they’re closing in. That silence gives me hope.
Second, stop being selfish. This isn’t just about you, or even us as Americans. This is about humanity. Look around—the same struggles are happening in other countries too, and it’s all connected. We’re not alone in this.
Personally, I had set my own deadline to see something prove I was right by Jan 20 (I set this back the morning after the election). Some data has slowly dropped out, and I’ve maintained a calm deep sense this whole time. When things didn’t go the way I expected on 1/6, I didn’t give up. I sat down, thought about what other paths could be taken, and started to see the bigger picture.
And you need to start reading the emotions in play. People like Trump, Elon, and JD are clearly projecting—they’re panicking and trying to hide it. If they had this all under control, why would they be acting like that?
So, for everyone’s sake, stop with the negativity. It’s not helping. Instead, focus on the light, on where we want to go, and on the good that’s coming. When you don’t, you focus on the evil, and why would you ever give something so horrific power over you? Evil doesn’t win. It may hold on for a while, but eventually, it crumbles. We’re seeing that happen now.
Everything must fall before we can rebuild it the right way. And this time, we’re not rebuilding with the same broken systems. As Kamala put it “don’t be held back by what always has been”. We’re creating something new: a path of love, compassion, and unity (which humanity hasn’t actually seen before on a large scale, so this should be exciting!). But to do that, you need to work on yourself. What’s holding you back? What can you heal in you (traumas for example)? The growth you focus on now will help us rebuild when the time comes. You need to be working on yourself so when we come together we start off on a good foot.
So grow a backbone. Stop wallowing in despair and rather focus on hope, healing, and a brighter future. I’ll see you on the other side—because justice will prevail. Just stop with the negativity. If he really is sworn in on 1/20 then you can flip your lid. But it’s not definite yet! Not until it happens! Which means it can still NOT happen. Keep an open mind, always look for the light in the darkness no matter how much you think it’s not there, and keep on carrying on. We will all be OKAY.
