My "movement" is in minds, not streets. Like you said, there are so many defenders of a broken system. Change has to happen in the mind before it will happen in the world.

The more people see and hear "no hope" the more they accept it. The more accepted it is, the harder it will be to change, the harder we fall.

I'm not trying to change your mind... I understand your position. It makes emotional sense, and I can absolutely empathize with being out of "fight." I just can't logically rationalize acceptance of it all.

(I re-read it... hopefully the quotes don't come off as sarcasm. They aren't, I promise!)
