    Yeah I have lost a lot of faith in the country (US) and don’t see or know a path forward. You have multiple generations not willing, unable or just plain don’t know how to fight back and now the males of zoomers and generation alpha are swerving into the new young nazi party territory. The population is less educated than ever before thanks to the constant attacks on educational institutions and social media and the environment is collapsing rapidly while govs ignore the causes.

    I’m so over the folks sharing these hopeful platitude snapbacks - It’s pointless and really comes off as “I did my part” when people post and then proceed to do nothing more. The last protest I saw before Roe was overturned was a fucking depressing party of people instagramming their stupid, cheeky signs and saying “we will vote harder next time”. Making a sign for your instagram “protest” appearance where everyone shouts platitudes and posting to social media about it is clearly not an effective strategy for change or progress, but it seems like the only thing the left knows how to do… other than sit out elections and further ostracize young males so Rogan and Tate can scoop them up.
