Stay angry, yes, but why do people think hope and anger are mutually exclusive? Hope is the desire and possible expectation of a good outcome. If you have anger but no hope then you’re kind of useless, because you don’t think we can win and you’ll embrace futility. https://twitter.com/heyshanmurphy/status/1079786798975516673 …

tbh i think there are multiple specific emotional processes/postures that people call "hope" and the most lionized one (because of its centrality to organized religion) is a plaintive passivity that begs for a positive outcome using how much a negative outcome would hurt

Yeah, but we have a word for that, “Thoughts and prayers”.

there is a lot of uphill ground to cover before that usage would begin to displace calling it "hope"
