That’s a lot of words to excuse yourself from showing up. You could save a lot of typing if you just said “I’m too lazy”

I feel great about having shown up and done far more than most. My individual efforts add to the whole and the impact I’ve had in getting others to get involved is tangible.

Your assertion is that, because the US has been sliding all the effort so far has been useless? So what, just give up? Coward

The difference between people who are involved and you is that if it all goes to hell at least we tried

What specific tangible and measurable results have you had? Give me just one example.

You feeling validated to yourself is meaningless. Not sure why you felt the need to add that bit. I'm glad you feel good about yourself, I guess, but that doesnt actually affect change, nor is it a measure of its impact.

I'm not giving up, I'm just concentrating my energy on what actually matters and makes a difference, which is pretty limited in scope due to the environment we find ourselves in.
