With all the negative stuff going on (Trump’s failed assassination) and everything, it is natural to get absorbed in the doomerism. Of course, pretending that nothing scary is happening isn’t the best thing to do. Scary stuff is happening, and we need to take action.
That being said, I personally trust Americans to do the right thing. Trump won’t win, and America won’t go fascist. This is because good people will fight and win. Same goes with other countries (France and the UK for example).
Leaving politics aside, there’s a lot of hope ahead. Science and Tech is advancing, life expectancy is increasing, investment in transit is increasing, countries r going greener, etc. Many cancer therapies r coming out (see the cancer vaccines for instance). Many cities have done some much needed land rezoning, due to which affordable housing will be a thing, 15 minute cities will be more and more common and so on.
The future is looking good, exciting stuff is happening and EVERYTHING WILL BE ALRIGHT.
Again, a little fear is good. Fear is what prevented early humans from being killed by predators, and it is what will prevent bad things from happening to us in the future. However, letting it consume our lives is a little counter intuitive.

I’m not sure I share your optimism, but I am eternally grateful for people like you. Unchecked pessimism doesn’t help anyone.
Feels like a call for complacency to me.
I disagree.
What drugs are you on? Seriously, I want some; America is doomed, the rich have won, and the environment is trying to exterminate us.
Bull mother fucking shit. You are living with your head in the sand, and assuming things will go your way against all evidence to the contrary. And shit is not good RIGHT MOTHER FUCKING NOW! And even with the slim possibility of a Democratic win in the election we still take another step towards tyranny just not three. I do not see a way off this violent path that does not lead to violence.
You know, this is a good thought for those who are overly anxious.
Understand that for some of us who live in red states, Project 2025 is already being implemented in our states. The national stage isn’t doing anything to slow it down.
Trump vs Joe Biden… It’s a close call. Which smelly old senile man should we select as president?
It is not REMOTELY close.
