    Excellent response.

    I’m trying to limit myself to watching for actual threats to my family. Basically a couple of things. Watching for the same stuff that tipped us off on COVID and watching for camps actually being setup on US soil.

    Trying to ignore all the ragebait and most of the news. I think I see manipulation similar to what I saw on the first trump election now targeted left. So, pants on head crazy.

    Heads down and try to only pay attention to the important stuff.

      the best thing you can do is to keep the people around you safe, healthy, and happy. Aside from that staying politically informed on the macro level is going to be beneficial as it will guide you through the landscape more clearly. But unfortunately, that’s the harder part these days.

      Heads down and try to only pay attention to the important stuff.

      This is pretty much the meta for now. You can’t fight if you aren’t physically or mentally capable.

      I imagine you’ve seen the articles about the federal government buying land in NJ and TX for camps? That was happening before 1/20. Almost immediately after the election that shit started.

        I have heard about land being volunteered for use in Texas as a political stunt, have not seen anything about land being purchased for that purpose.
