    I get you, but we all want to do something we just don’t know what to do, or where to expend our efforts.

    The evil overlords have collusion, they’re backed by think tanks and hundreds of years of planning. It’s not that easy to take down. There’s no step outside your door, kinda action to do, what do we do? If we knew which actions to take, we would all do them with great gusto.

    The action you’re waiting to see is when all other semblance of life are taken away from us and we have nothing to lose, and our lives are being taken or taken over by the evil overlords directly, then you’ll see mostly people in fight or flight. And when you’re in fight or flight your thinking systems are shut off, so it might look impressive, but it won’t have forethought.

    Instead of lamenting bitterly why aren’t people doing anything, or throwing pesimism at no current actions, What we should be doing is planning their take down. Which pegs and cogs in the machine do we aim for. Which groups do we support, who is planning action that we support, gather and ask, non rhetorically, what can we do and troubleshoot what we can do, both big and small. How can we gather numbers.

    If you’re sad you think we will act too late, start a movement now. Join something and encourage others to, as well. Use your emotions and funnel them into action.

    What is it we should be doing, and let’s start doing it.
