minus-squareCashewNut 🏴linkfedilink-4•8 months ago a better world is possible! No it isn’t. Because the only way to out-vote, out-number, overpower, and / or annihilate those bastards is to be alive. One person railing against 7B isn’t going to do shit. Life and the world are a lost cause. In my 20s I thought I could do something about it. Now at 40 I realise I’m impotent against the world.
