And also I think we really really need to rejoice in our wins. A lot of really good stuff is happening. Just because a lot of bad stuff is also happening is not a reason to be discouraged.
A lot of effort is being expended to /get us/ to be discouraged. One of the ways we can make progress is to learn how to not be affected by those efforts—to see them for what they are, and laugh at them and at ourselves for our tendency to believe them.

We really need to approach this with kindness rather than hatred, because it's incredibly hard to stay positive if you feel like you have to spew negativity all the time, and if you act on that belief.
