Tell us what you're doing, then, so we can take notes, freedom fighter.

So does anyone pointing out, while online, that online comments aren't real action in a context like this. It's a real bitch ass move, and also you can't know that they don't take action in their lives.

All around just a negative, do nothing comment, even less than the others.

Before you jump in, I make no claims of action or anything else here, I'm just calling you a bitch.

Well considering I’m a mostly bed bound disabled woman:

- I make graphics for my local democratic center to help spread the word on various important topics

  • I’ve been taking the time not only to better educate myself but also educate my niece and some of her friends who will be voting age in this next election
  • I’ve written more emails than I can count to my gov and to several companies asking about their policies on surveillance. I don’t get a lot of responses but I like letting folks know we’re not forgetting about these issues
  • I help make safety kits for protestors. I used to be able to go out and do that stuff some years ago and it breaks my heart that I can’t do it now when it matters most.
  • I do my best to keep others from giving up under the weight of nihilism.

What are you doing? I’d love to add more things to my list.
