31. A real question, and my answer is: It's the same thing
Present tense: resignation
Past tense: complacency

Having searched DU for an acknowledgement of our complicity amidst all the wise words about what's REALLY going on in the world, the willingness to give in to a science-fiction-nightmare future as it is STILL in process of being woven around us, seems pointless, self-indulgent.

If we see the signs, if we are aware of the dangers, why sit around and share our depression, when we still have a chance to DU something?

If we can't come together and recognize that the people who watched the never-ending Reagan Era encroach and strangle the nation, had a role in LIHOP; then let us come together and recognize the encroaching dangers NOW and rip the cord out of the strangler's hand-- or we are MIHOP.

IMHO.
