My partner and I have talked about the importance of hope and also the importance of not letting worry stagnate.

What I mean by that:

If you truly believe that there is no hope in the US, then that should inform your next steps. Be they organizing, working on leaving the country, or getting ready to go live in the woods for a few decades.

I won't invalidate your fears about this country. Instead: if that's your position, how does that inform your response?

I had a similar conversation with someone who was talking about the growing #climate crisis and what he should do since he lost all hope of humanity recovering.

I said, essentially, then go enjoy the time you have left with your friends/loved ones, work to make the world a little bit better for those around you on the way out.

You can't control the world, only your response to it, only the meaning you derive from it along the way.
I think that's a good provocation, one I'll copy.
