Looking around me:
- I started seeing people who support capitalist companies instead of non-profits.
- People losing their freedoms everywhere at high pace.
- No one is taking any serious steps to stop climate change.
- A lot of non-profits had seriously down scaled their operations in the last 5 years, most probably more non-profits will get hit hard this year.
- On a relative scale, no one is fighting to change any of this.
Do we have any hope?

Symmetrically alternative recipe that I recently heard (from a French academic): “hopeful pessimism”. The idea being, roughly, that while it’s delusional to be optimistic, hopefulness is by definition subjective and therefore valid. And indeed quite sensible given that we can never know the future and therefore it really might turn out to be better than expected.
