Rep. Ted Lieu isn't backing down.

@georgetakei "The next administration..."

Good luck with that.

@swordgeek @georgetakei

could we please stop with the cowardly spineless cynicism?

we want the usa to improve, yes?

so we don't speak in mindless capitulation that is not wise, is not useful, and just boils down to useless whiny "everything sucks forever, waah"

we speak of how we can improve things and work towards that

cynicism is acceptance of fascism

the cynic is MAGA's best friend

@benroyce @swordgeek @georgetakei you’re right. I still observe myself being being sarcastic or cynical to cope with all that shit, but I also realize that this won’t improve anything. There’s still hope.

@lordkhan @swordgeek @georgetakei

self-awareness

you have it, to your credit

and i as well can feel bleak. we all do at times

but it seems to be a dying artform in this world where some can pull themselves out of it, and others wallow in it and make it their entire identity

defeated people. learned helplessness

they only serve as an aid to MAGA
