Talking to the beep but decogonizing line connecting them downs. I'm shy, you should, Shasha. So my final thoughts of twenty twenty five. This has been a year of great awakening for I mean not just myself, but I mean just like the world, and I know that it can be it can just be really frustrating and feel really

slow and the application of that. I don't even know where my optimism comes from, because I am a realist, and it's not from a sense of even like my own self protection, because like I'm not I'm not really like trying to be here like that, like if I'm here, I'm here, I'm a rite it out, But I'm not like like it ain't. I wouldn't. I wouldn't be lying to myself for that, for like the safety of feeling like that's the case. But I do believe. I believe

that we are about to witness an incredible moment. I don't know, I just feel that I've been feeling it for years now, and that incredible moment does not have to be one of incredible defeat of us. It can be one of incredible victory. And also, by the way, like reassessing what that means because like many people, I think consider victory as like we have like overtaken, and it's like, no, victory is when you have rendered the

harm harmless. You know, It's like at the end of Avatar when instead of killing the firelord and just removes him of his power. So when we think of revolution, we don't have to think of it in terms of violence, and we don't have to think of it. We don't have to think of a turn, and we don't have to think of it in terms of traditional forms of violence, and we don't have to think of it in terms

of traditional forms of funding. Because to somebody whose existence hinges on the misery of others, it is violent to be joyful. This episode of Amanda Amplified is brought to you by It's time to connect to a community that is compassionate and supportive for many. Patreon is a subscription
