I understand where you are coming from. It does look like the future is bleak. But all is not lost. There are more people out there like you than you imagine. Part of how people in power keep holding onto it is by making themselves look like they can not be defeated. If they do a good job, most good people will not even try to defeat them.
From where I sit, I see the world changing in substantial ways. We are on the verge of a major shift in how the world works. I hope to be part of that change. Please do not give up hope… as I would like you to help with that change as well. Everyone has a role to play. Just keep looking and you will find yours.
