I felt like shit for a while after ST, and it lingered so long that I even convinced myself to vote for Brandon. I now believe it was a good thing to experience. I always had my suspicions about the DNC, federal government, and media as a whole, but they made sure to let us know who ran things at the end of the day.
Now we have proof to not waste our limited resources fighting an impossible battle for positions in a government who's entire point of existing is to protect capital. Local Direct Action was always our best option, I was just too blinded by corporate media to see it for an embarrassingly long amount of time.
Sometimes I lie awake and night and wonder if it was better to have experienced that moment of hope or not.
