    agitate people who are more receptive to agitation, not just random shithead liberals who say something awful.

    a handy checklist to gauge general agitatibility in the US, try to get several boxes checked, the more the better

    • not white
    • works for a living (not software development)
    • disabled / lumpen / down and out / chronic health issues
    • has been to prison or jail
    • rides public transit
    • not strongly committed to liberalism (e.g. non voters, apolitical, non organizing leftists, some conservatives)
    • not a homeowner
    • no habit of consuming US propaganda (TV news, Rogan, NY Times/WSJ if not in New York)

    For me, I put my pride aside and watched K-Dramas.

    After watching Crash Landing On You (Torrent Link), a story about a South Korean woman who finds herself in North Korea, my life was a complete emotional wreck for months. If I ever get Alzheimer’s, I’ll be happy knowing I can rewatch this continuously.

    I helped someone to have options in his life to be a happy individual, other than the options his family was forcing him to take. Feels good see him successful and happy.

    Comitted to helping another person find themself. Not guiding, not shaping, just helping with the only motive being that their life satisfaction increases.
