    Next you can get involved with politics.

    Sorry, I have to actually work for a living to keep a fucking roof over my head and food on my table. I literally couldn’t make the time if I tried, and I sure as shit don’t have the money.

    After that maybe donate some money and so on…

    What money? I live in America, where the overwhelming majority live paycheck to paycheck and struggle just to get by.

    And who should I give it to? Some limp dick lobbying group pushing for glacially incremental change and that no one in government gives a fuck about? Hard pass.

    But sure, keep blaming the victims and jerking off the villains. I’m sure it’ll all work out great for you.

      So the guy from there riches county in the world is to poor and to lazy to do anything. Good thing you found the time to tell everyone else that they shouldn’t do anything too 💩

      But seriously, maybe write one letter a week or so to one of your politicians and don’t cry me a river that this probably will help nothing… just start and tell others to do the same! Resignation and discouraging others will definitely help nothing!

      The choice is stark. Toil in bitterness till death or make a way to be involved in building something better . . . till death.

      Either way it ends the same. One path makes for a better interim.
