*I* believe in the rule of law, but I don't think it's actively being enforced in the country that I love. I won't pretend that America has ever been the place that we pretend to be, but there have always been people who believe in its promise. We will never achieve our potential with fatalistic defeatism. We need the common will of the people to push us in the right direction, and that doesn't happen if we just run away when things get hard.

The user you're replying to seems to be a legit unwell person who is having an episode. Probably don't need to spend much time reasoning with them.
