True irreparable harm has been done to the world through climate change.
But I see a second wave of people's revolutions coming. Hopefully it'll be in time to react to the changes of the world.
Even in Hopeless times we must have hope comrade.
Nah, I’m done hoping. I’ve seen them dashed constantly.
Fair enough. At least remember what the stoics have said. Shift in perspective can make a depressed man happy. I like to qualify stoicism as "finding happiness in misery"
An important lesson from Epictetus that even in the most dire circumstances ( he was a slave to a cruel master) you can still choose to be happy. Happiness is dependent on the state of mind not your material conditions according to him although he might be taking it a wee bit far.
