I understand. All I meant on this thread was that all we can do is stand against evil and injustice and hope that we find people to stand with us. At the end of the day, if enough of us do it, things will get better. People getting married and having kids in the worst of circumstances is just the human spirit looking for that connection and never giving up on what really matters in life.

I got married and had a kid out of trauma. Workplace sexual harassment, retaliation, and abuse. It's not the same as a war-torn country, but the main reason I changed my mind on those things.

I was not in a war-torn country, but I was in a personal psychological warfare with only one target - me. They say it is as bad as being in a war. At least the books I have read on workplace abuse do. The PTSD is comparable as well.

Magic wand? Nope, you just stand against it. I can not order anyone to stand in the face of evil. I know what it takes. I'm still paying for it. But we, as a whole, have way more power than Putin or whoever stupid dictator. That is why it is OUR job to do it. Don't just celebrate someone else still standing, stand with them.
