Words of hope, words of optimism
There’s no other way to put it, we’ve definitely lost some battles, but we only lose the war until and unless we’ve surrendered.
A bully learns the wrong lesson if you keep giving him your lunch money. The goal should always be to win, but if we go down, it is much better to go down swinging than to go down caving.
In the end, evil never wins. It just sometimes takes longer to defeat than we would like.
It’s not a matter of if this gets put behind us, but when. It’s a battle many of us might have to fight for the rest of our lives - but if progress can be undone, so can damage.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
