Thanks for the reply. I still like to hold out hope in the face of what seems like long odds—I’d rather go down swinging if there’s any non-zero chance of success than succumb to fatalism and be defeated without even trying.
This is exactly why I’m writing these essay. This is my attempt at a haymaker. Although I would equate it less to going down swinging and more to kicking my feet and trying to get free after the noose has already gone tight around my neck and hauled me off the ground.
