Sinclair Lewis said “When Fascism comes to America, it will be wrapped in the flag and carrying a cross.”
It’s hard to feel like me as a singular person can do much is this ocean of horrifying things. I even find my kindness and empathy wearing thin - all in the name of “they voted for this crap and now I will be dragged along”.
I remind myself to be kind, stand up for what is right, and do what I can. Which mostly involves contacting my congress people and representatives to also do the right thing for the people.
Every day is terrifying. Stay safe.
