Moore and less (Image via Midwestern Films)
Michael Moore says of Fahrenheit 11/9, his new doc about Trump's power grab:
Fuck hope. Seriously, fuck hope. Fuck despair, too. But fuck hope. Hope is passive. Hope gives you permission to let someone else do the work. Hope leads people to believe that tax returns, or a pee tape, or the FBI or an adult film star will save the country. Hope, and the passivity that comes with it, is what helped get us here to begin with. It’s the lazy way out. We don’t need hope. We need action.
