That is horrifying. It's all horrifying. I always thought that with everything online that we'd all look at each other and do something, but from this to genocide, it feels like we're stuck in "thoughts and prayers" mode when we should be at "torches and pitchforks." They're human beings, we're human beings. We only get one life. Why the fuck are we doing this to each other.
Because commenting and sharing on social media feels like you're doing something without having to actually do anything.
The state has a monopoly on violence and none of the people running the state have our best interests in mind or heart. They've sold out to money. From squares to strip malls.
I don't know, I feel like writing online and telling the traitors to eat shit can be a therapeutic release that keeps you engaged and allows some emotional distance without full dissociation
The worst thing you could do is check out and accept defeat. Or go to a protest without your face covered bc they're using Clearview to track people
Given the media is being silenced it's one of the few tools of communication we have left that hasn't been entirely hijacked by people screaming I <3 free speech and free markets while suppressing both bc they know that in reality they would never survive a press or market they couldn't control and manipulate
