There is no “after the revolution.” No “ideal world.” I don’t care how much progress we make, we will always fail someone, hurt someone, and the best thing we can do is accept that, and keep striving to make it better as we go.

And don’t get me wrong, I don’t say this to discourage anyone from trying to make that ideal world. Quite the opposite.

I feel like it’s very naive to continue to approach these big changes we want to make in the world as if there’s an “after it’s all over” when we don’t have to worry about it anymore.

We should always be striving to make life better, even when life seems pretty damn good.

Oh my god

I hadn’t thought to call it “rapture culture” but that’s EXACTLY what it is

“If [the Revolution] is seen as having any end, it will never truly begin.”
