Hope can certainly be grounded in nothing. If you want to limit your statement to hope alone, that's fine, but it's not at all arrogant to note that Biden will be inaugurated on the 20th, and that Trump will leave office then. No uncertainty reasonably attaches to that statement.
Hoping that things go differently is fine, but believing that they will is batshit.
Certainly I know, in the same sense that I know that the British monarchy will still exist on the 20th, and that the US currency will not have changed to bitcoin on the 20th, etc. - these are all statements to which no meaningful uncertainty attaches.
That's precisely the point. There is no sane dispute about whether or not Biden will be sworn in. Claims that the military is going to swoop in and arrest Biden and Congress etc. are about as absurd and substanceless as a hypothetical claim that the British monarchy is going to be abolished on Wednesday.
I heard a joke: In 2019 I learned to stay away from negative people. In 2020 I learned to stay away from positive people.
It seems it's not popular to be positive anymore. Glowies even invented words for it like "hope porn" and hopium.
If LARPers comes down to have me choose between hope & optimism and pessimism & despair, I'm going to choose hope and optimism every time. Without hope you have nothing, and it is a choice.
You spelt 4 years and 2 days in a weird way
This guy knows what’s up.

If this was a TV show, there would be a commercial right now.
Hahaha that got an auditable laugh out of me. That might be the best way to describe the moment we are living in right now.
This gave me a good laugh, thanks =D
Just be prepared if there isn't enough popcorn to go around.
You can't just let people take your popcorn away.
Hahahahahahaha
Hmmmmm, Elmo acting a bit like Hunter today.
The bananas looked "off" anyway.
