It's going to be barbarism in the USA, isn't it? (hexbear.net)

Just thinking today based on the recent news of well, the past 6-months, that we're headed in a pretty dire direction. We're not even one year into Trump and things have already accelerated to the point we are at today. The only silver lining I see here is that the usa has fucked off from abusing the global south and China has stepped in to steer the non-fascism aligned world in a good direction. Great, but I have a sinking feeling for the rest of us poor stuck in this shithole.

I'd love to, unfortunately I'm stuck in a catch-22 in that the place where I live keeps me in chronic sensory & social burnout.

meanwhile I tried to get my local friends to do literally anything at all, including just get together and talk over food about practical steps, several times since Trump got elected and the conclusion I came to is that they, like the vast majority of Americans, have one primary aim in life: namely, to not change anything they are doing by the width of a single atom, for any reason whatsoever. The most radical ones occasionally wish Bernie and AOC would team up and do something they could nod at from afar. It's fucking bleak.
