Don’t just sit there; DO SOMETHING!

I know it can seem overwhelming.
It frankly is.
But… that’s the point.
“They” want you to feel overwhelmed and powerless, because then you won’t do anything about it.
You’ll just continue your normal routine to survive… for now.

You need to overcome that dread and fear.
I used to try my best not to be alarmist. I’ve been working towards privacy and security for myself and my family for years.
But if everyone does that and doesn’t speak out publicly, no one will know you’re with them and want to help…
You can’t tell that anyone else cares, so why should you?

If no one speaks out for fear of retribution, what does that say about our current situation?
And worse, the future situation?

I don’t know what you or I should do. I do know that doing nothing achieves nothing. So, I’m trying to do something.

Please do something.
Even if just showing up somewhere to express discontent.
Even if just honking at us as you drive by.
Even if just starting to look into how things are going.

I know you’re tired.
We’re all tired.
Don’t stop trying to do something.
