the thing about satyagraha is that Gandhi being murdered himself doesn't constitute failure--the point of nonviolent resistance isn't that it's more safe, it's that it dramatizes the violence of the state and highlights its illegitimacy via contrast, and it mobilizes public outrage against injustice

If you are anxious and sad about the state of the world, that's fine, and there are plenty of strategies for dealing with that. But I think you already know that drive-by online dooming isn't a strategy. It's selfish and adolescent. It's a contagion that only spreads the worst of you, not the best.
