Right on Tirion, never give up, never quit, no matter the "nattering nabobs of negativism" ... Sam Adams said it best, "It does not take a majority to prevail but rather a Tireless, Irate Minority keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of men."
If you believe that is true then it is true. Whether it was 10% or 33% or 90% of population supportive of Independence there was a part who thought the whole thing folly and hopeless, just as you do now.
Wrong. It does matter what the rough percentages are, and as you should know, that would be a big difference between if it were say 10% or say 90%.
It’s not a matter of it being “folly and hopeless“, it is definitely a matter of understanding the basic aspect of human nature that allows a lot of people to simply accept whatever is going to happen to them. I’m not one of those, but, it is essential that we understand what we’re up against
Yes, I'm not disagreeing with you; but the situation is not hopeless, yet.

Unfortunately, I’m afraid it is.
I guess we'll have to agree to disagree after all!
