I feel like Lemmy is going a great job collectively of diminishing every win against the Trump administration. Every step forward seems to get downplayed. If I limited my exposure to this forum I'd have a much bleaker picture of people successfully resisting. We actually had the supreme court come to a 5-4 decision against Trump's blanket firings.

If you only read Lemmy, though? You'd probably be inclined to assume that's all meaningless and we're already cooked. It's honestly pretty suspect.

I would urge everyone here to make sure it's not the only place you're getting your political messaging, and maybe take it with a huge grain of salt, because it's defeatist to the point of being propagandistic.
