Should say “wouldn’t be necessary.”

Propaganda is necessary because the possibility to overcome it always exists.

This image gives me an insanely intense positive feeling I can't identify. Thank you.

Good, I'm glad it's resonating with people. It's a good reminder to not let yourself become victim to the hopeless that they want you to have. We can fight and we will fight

We don't have to win every battle to turn the tides

They tried to bury us. They didn’t know we were seeds.

propaganda for a system that's unsustainable often comes down to cries for perseverance.

propaganda for a better world too.

there is no inevitability to be gained here.

Not strictly true. Even if a situation is hopeless, that doesn't mean that the other side can stop putting in effort. Imagine a race in which one runner is so far ahead of the others that they can't catch up to him before he reaches the finish line. He still has to keep running!

And that runner can still trip and fall. Rarely does any side avoid all mistakes

Let's hope so.
