don’t know what else I can do really. I’ve stopped spending money and cancelled all subscriptions. I’m voting with my wallet. Most big tech and big box stores support the repubs. All I can do is not give them any more money than I have to. I’ll continue to vote as long as have that option.
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.
Continue to vote with your wallet and with your well… vote. But also do your best for community out reach for whatever matters to you. If you can do so safely anyway. Speaking with people is the only way to combat mis information and to build community.
That’s a good start. I would recommend also trying to form groups to pressure companies to no longer donate to republicans. Also work to get people away from misinformation platforms such as X and Fox News. I’m not in the EU but if you know anyone in there they could help with this petition: https://ban-x-in.eu/

join a community organization, join a union, support local progressive community organizations.
If you get organized and start taking direct political action you can have an impact between elections.
If US labor was organized a general strike would bring the government to its knees. Build that momentum.
