...but I've been thinking a lot lately about small vs. big scale activism. And how they need each other. How we need people planting gardens on rooftops, but we also need people signing legislature that makes farm subsidies go to the right farmers, and that makes it impossible to buy high-emissions vehicles, with affordable alternatives, so that not only rich conscientious people buy hybrids.
I went from an apathetic to an anarchist to a democrat in about 5 months- hot damn.
Correction- I'm now an amalgamation of all three.
Ultimately, I find that again, things rest in a spot of tension between equally compelling forces. Maybe striking that balance without being ripped to pieces is one definition of wisdom?
