Don't do that, don't give me hope.

While this seems like a sarcastic comment and quote we've been fooled too many times and lured with false hope and illusions of having an impact while being just held as slaves, more or less.

Edit: feel free to elaborate on down vote. I am just sick and tired of trying my best for the environment and getting my ass handed to me by mega corporations and additionally being blamed, too.

You need hope.

If you have no hope, why would you try to fix something? If people don’t try to fix something, it’ll never get done.

So ask yourself, do you want a better world?

You're giving people hope while Joe Biden is forcing federal workers to get into their car and drive into the office. Hope they can fight for something better makes people think "Well I'm not going to vote for someone who does that."

If you turn around and say "No, no. You have to." Now you've given someone hope and then just ripped it right back.
