if you start "working for a better tomorrow" within a discursive context that leans well into the realm of fascism, if you do it without thinking--with great focus--about that frame, the "tomorrow" that will result for may not be what you hoped for at all.
calls for a busby berkeley moment without regard for context might make you feel better in the short term, like you are "doing something" and not engaging in the Bummer of Critique.
"waking up" in a context unexamined is worse than remaining asleep.
