96. Yes. !
Real change agents, including revolutionaries, have to be on guard against schadenfreude, because when things get real bad, change possibilities are maximized. THINK: SHOCK AND AWE (on the other side of the coin - volatile conditions, bad conditions....)

Though folks may be processing understandable anger and grief, to drop out NOW is, like, the worst possible timing, it seems. I trust that's not what a few people are saying here. Then I suppose there's a few demobilizers among us. One has to expect it IF one loves one's country (even in a twisted way) it's worth investing in and that includes investing in what are called trolls for lack of a better term, to help with the demobilization of the other side. One never knows who they are, and I don't believe in trying to find out, even though they are virtually certain to exist.
