Basically take care of your mental health, don’t get caught up in a cycle of despair. Focus on what you can do to make a difference and not worry too much about the things you cannot control.

    The problem is that in abusive relationships the ultimate boundary is going no contact. The only way you can do that to an abusive government is immigrating to another country, this is the brain drain we’re experiencing now. At the end, the country will be full of people permanently stuck in survival mode who make no attempt at improving their conditions. Learned helplessness and hopelessness. That is the future of America unless people start fighting fire with fire. We cannot afford to “take the higher ground”, that is what got us here in the first place.
