They are coming down hard on protestors because the powers the be are scared and weak. They are stretched thin and are incompetent. They lost Vietnam, they lost the Middle East, they lost Cuba, they lost North Korea, they lost Ukraine and they'll eventually lose the world.
You are currently in the claws of the beast and the beast is dying. You will be free of it's clutches, keep biting its hands. It's squeezing you because your bites hurt it. Do not give up.
I haven't taken my own life despite feeling like the world is designed to convince me to do that and that's a fucking victory in my book

In the same boat. A few months ago it got so bad I sat on the window parapet contemplating whether to do it or not, but seeing students stand up for what is right and the empire beginning to show massive cracks reminded me of why I’m still alive and why we must keep going

That's something important I should keep in mind. My depression is as much an altered state as drunkenness
