This is an old song by @iamcalebhawley and it’s on my election anxiety calmdown playlist. A little dose of hope.

Do you want to know the progress that happened after that performance?
It’s actually astounding, when you think about it.
The Affordable Care Act was signed into law less than a year later.
Don’t Ask Don’t Tell was repealed.
Dodd-Frank was signed into law-bank reform (didn’t...

go far enough but it was something).
Gay marriage was made legal in every state.
We had the first ever major party female Presidential candidate.
That’s a small portion of the progress.
Yes, trump n frenz are trying to roll back all the progress. They want the current gilded age

to last forever. They want to turn us into an oligarchy, like Russia.
It won’t work.
“Cause ever since the world began, when the people go down, they get right back up again. I know that it’s hard to imagine, but it’s gonna happen-and I’ll see you on the other side of it all.”

We have some major fucking messes to clean up once we vote these fuckers out. But we can do it. We’ve done it before.
