bingo. i have nothing to add, just chiming in to let you know theres others out there who are at the point of not reading about it any longer. if the people who are in a position to do something about it arent doing anything about it, then reading more about it is as useful as watching porn.

> I can do nothing

The far right and Trump's biggest support is people acting helpless and spreading their dogma of helplessness. It's surreal to see how effective their propaganda is - this is right out of psyops playbooks. It's truly unmaerican to throw up your hands - nobody is going to do it for you, and anything is possible. That's part of freedom.

I'm not saying "Do nothing", I'm saying "stop reading".

Just reading stuff on social media and tsk-tsking got us nowhere. We have to do more.

I think it's necessary (to a point, in a certain way) but certainly not sufficient. If you surrender social media to mis/disinformation - as the Democratic Party seems to have done - you're going to lose for sure.

But a persuasive, positive (e.g., not cynical), honest argument sets an example that those things are important and powerful - and they are - and that there is a valid point of view out there.
