The only way to win is to not play. There may not be the ability to organize change in the national level, ever again. But I feel states and towns can improve things
Frankly, yeah.
I don’t think we have any real power to sway things at the federal level. (Unless you’re a billionaire or willing to pull a Player 2.)
It’s still possible to do a vast amount of good in your local community, and I think everyone should. For example, Kansas City’s city council just passed a 5-year moratorium on any permits or zoning for ICE “mass detention” facilities.
