i certainly hope so and that this road doesn't pass through too much tyranny and injustice before bringing us to our desired destination.

I'm looking for reasons to be optimistic and coming up short; but if democracy really did survive, overcome, and adapt to fascism's latest iteration, what a glorious start to a new chapter of our history that would be. I hope we live in that time line. Democracy winning would inspire in me a hope for the future that I have not believed in for decades.
Unless I'm misreading, "we are on the road" is with respect to "I and other progressives will be holding grassroots events" (from the article's lede) and not "we as a country are heading towards...". That is, the more stalwart Democrats are holding events around the country about how to combat the current administration.
Love ya, Bennie, but whatever road we were on, we've crashed through the guard rails and are on the way to the bottom of the lake.
It's time to break some windows, not check the map.
I think just taking out the drivers would be enough.
It'd certainly be a good start.
...and the second amendment.
Is totally gonna be removed the moment anyone uses it for its intended purpose.
Tanks?
You're welcome!
