Stop stress eating & go exercise! Start organizating locally, build mutual support with like minded people. Build resilience & don’t give in, our strength is with in our selves not the political class, not the state, not the corporate elites, our selves. Act like it.

              This sort of thread in the current context of events does run the risk of making one appear to be an opportunistic accelerationist, whether that be the case or not.

                I’m trying to get people to not death spiral in to depression & do something helpful in the short term for themselves & others in their local communities. Best case scenario it helps us all get through the social, political, & economic chaos of the incoming clown show worce case we will be better able to defend against any potential violence directed at us.

                  Thank you for doing so. It’s been a rough week for most of us on the left side of the political spectrum. Someone in another thread described it as similar to the grief process and that is extremely apt.

                  Best case scenario it helps us all get through the social, political, & economic chaos of the incoming clown show worse case we will be better able to defend against any potential violence directed at us.

                  Despite my fury at my fellow leftists, I do agree that this is a very prudent thing to do and appreciate your doing so. I profoundly hope that yourself and those close to you remain safe and well in the coming shitstorm.
