"Taking care of yourself can be that you stand up and fight or you exit and don't have that fight - and both are equally valid options. I want to resist the notion that the person who stands up and fights is braver and doing the right thing than the person who chooses not to"

Good morning. Please remember that in country where the top 10% own 78% of wealth, the narrative that "illegal immigrants" are grabbing resources meant for Indians is a fraud, spun to turn peoples' anger onto those most vulnerable, and least responsible for the mess we're in.
