I choose to look at a brighter side of life
Given the track record of politicians and politics for thousands of years thatās being delusional. But you do you.

I have my hopes up but my foot out the door. idk any other way to play it. I don't see pessimism as a worthwhile pursuit
Fair, I feel you. Assessing actions and broad trends objectively is the way I play it. I also stand for what I stand for and donāt compromise.
When the principles I stand on are violated I will not ignore the violation no matter what else is going on. Some may call that unreasonable but as Iāve seen quoted on Nostr, āall progress depends on the unreasonable man.ā
