I have no idea how Bernie has kept fighting the good fight in the face of 60 years of seeing the worst of humanity constantly try to fuck everything up. He’s a better man than I am.
Not trying to butter you up, but if I could speak for him I would say you may surprise yourself by the end.
I suspect that exercising good will in the face of endlessly variable forms of human selfishness is in many ways like learning to run marathons. Until you’ve run that distance, it seems like a superhuman effort, but in hindsight you can’t imagine enjoying anything more. You do it because you like it. It becomes its own reward.
I’m just saying I think you’re capable of a more of the good fight than you might give yourself credit for, and we all need to be reminded of this from time to time.
