At this point I’m struggling to find how staying informed even helps. The news is a constant deluge of horrible shit I can’t do anything about. I voted, I’ve already braced myself financially for what’s coming as best as I can but I suspect it won’t be enough, no one in power is doing a fucking thing to help.
If you actually care there are endless places to start that are a single search away.
Before you whine about me not handing you something on a silver platter:
Go lobby your state legislature, your city council. Make noise about what issues are important to you, start a larger lobby group and never let a single rep go unharrassed, everything that you want done in reaction to the current admin, make your group shout it until it’s all they can think about.
Oh, and before you shoot down my idea because of whatever excuse realize you are the one moving the bar.
Oh, and before you cry about me being mean somehow rememeber that you showed up here shitting this defeatist rhetoric out of your ass mouth.
There isn’t a line, you are either informed or not.
If you care more about the illusion of mental health more than your life or reality then bury your head in the sand.

I think the point of the billionaire owned news spamming a bunch of horrible shit is to make you feel like participating in reality isn’t worth it.
Meanwhile the people who will fight back have to participate in reality
Fight back where? How? What am I supposed to be doing right now?
Literally any way you can come up with.

Okay you can go fuck yourself. I wasn’t disrespecting you by asking for advice.
