It depends on the context.
In the context of our current government, it doesn't seem likely that its hopeless. The fascists are so laughably incompetent that what they are doing is unsustainable even in the short term.
When it comes to certain other things, like my personal perception of the average American following this election, it indeed is hopeless. There is almost nothing that I could fathom that could make me fully sympathetic to the average American again.
