...it's important to recognize the good to offset as much of the bad as we can.
I've been around a while too, and with all the bad stuff I've seen go down over the years, I can honestly say I've never seen it be as threatening as it seems now. Maybe I was just young and invincible, and maybe I'm just tired of the rightwing B.S. decade after decade, but this time it all seems so insidious, and for the first time I'm feeling that we really do need to knock them out of the picture permanently if there's going to be any hope for a sane and just society some day.
