Do you think that you can help bring about the revolution or do you just want a minor less risky role? What kind of role can you participate on and die with a smile in your death bed when you think about how you lived your life?

    Idk honestly. I used to be out there organizing all the time, and it gave me a big sense of purpose. Back then I probably would have had a good answer for you. But then I got arrested, saw the inside of a jail cell, have to deal with the legal fallout, and now my anxiety is so bad that when I'm not at work I just hide at home. A better world will take so much more than getting arrested. Sometimes I'm not sure I'm strong enough for the fight.

      That's... understandable. I'm so sorry, comrade...

      I think many of us aren't the only ones though.
