And I think we'll be much more effective fighters if we go in thinking we can still win important battles that matter immensely, while at the same time remembering that so much has already been lost. This position, I think, is both true & can inspire. End. Thanks for listening.

Fear is an emotion that needs to be handled both delicately and wisely. Organizing people on the basis of this kind of painful emotion, may backfire, and I don't think it's a good strategy for sustained efforts. Possibly though as a very near-term tactic.
Maybe put another way: it's ok if fear gets people initially involved (hey, whatever works!). But people driven solely on the basis of fear won't be as effective and will probably soon burn out if other things don't then rise - the joy of doing the work, camaraderie, being human!
