I think one of the most beautiful texts in #marxism (to me at least) is Rosa Luxemburg's 'Order Prevails in Berlin'. It was the last piece she wrote, a few hours before she was brutally murdered by the counter-revolutionary, proto-fascist Freikorps. In it, she expresses an eternal hope for the future, how every defeat of socialism is just another lesson learned on the path to inevitable victory. If not now, then tomorrow, or maybe next year, or some future generation, but victory nonetheless.

It's a hope, a certainty, that no longer exists, in my mind, thanks to the capitalist-induced #ClimateCrisis

Though, to be sure, this doesn't imply defeatism, but should urge us to built our struggle on post-hope foundations.
