    Completely sad. Honestly crying all the time because I feel like I can’t do anything. Everyone keeps telling me to connect with local orgs but all their initiatives are like… The equivalent of planting a tree to try to save the environment.

    Playing by the rules is useless because my reps are evil. Breaking the rules is also pointless— let’s say you murder a CEO responsible for millions of deaths, he’s quickly replaced and the machine keeps churning and you martyred yourself for nothing.

    I can’t buy the “surviving is resistance” shit anymore because my survival is built on the suffering of others who were helpless to change things before me. Food picked by slaves and an apartment built on stolen land. I’m not the problem but I’m not the solution either, I’m just part of a hateful machine.
