This seems too defeatist.
People have been fighting for freedom in the United States for 250 years.
The Revolution.
Abolition.
Freeing the slaves.
Freedom of Speech in WWI.
Women's rights.
The Civil Rights movement.
Gay rights.

And then freedom advanced again.
.
I don't see any reason for us to give up now!
