Ufff. This is such and overwhelming assault, it's hard to feel anything but depressed and shocked (which seems to be what they want, send everyone reeling so there's no organized resistance). The temptation to just lie low for four years and then try to pick up the pieces is high. We shouldn't succumb. There are things that can be done, especially at state and local levels, which often pick up the slack when the federal government is dysfunctional or nonfunctional.
We HAVE to stay engaged. Don’t let their outrage fatigue strategy win.
It’s helped me to focus on the things I know about and care about most and to see what’s happening through that lens. Because it’s touching everything.
You’re right, mutual aid and local work is absolutely necessary!
