    It’s genuinely insane that we are allowing this to happen.

    What are we supposed to do though? Honest question. Everything just seems so hopeless.

      Connect with your community. Work at a local level, and build from that foundation with others doing the same to take on bigger problems

      Things are going to get rough for the whole planet, seems like that’s unavoidable at this point, but that doesn’t mean things are going to be bad everywhere all the time

      One person can’t fix the world, but you can make life better for the people around you. Things can get better locally. Good, even

      Hey, just asking the question is a good first step. Talk to people in your community (family, friends, workplace, the gym, wherever you spend time) about these problems. Ask them what they think. Gently suggest some solutions based on working together. If you really don’t have any solutions, say “then what are we supposed to do?” again, and brainstorm some ideas together.
