I’m with you. Handwringing, doubling down, pushing blame on everyone who disagrees with you. None of it is helpful and solves fuck all.
What is each and everyone of us going to do to make society and our communities better? Because we can’t rely on central government for this.
My boss at work has asked everyone to check in with colleagues before Christmas because it’s such a lonely or stressful time for people. Normal office chat “what are you doing for Christmas” has turned into something a lot more genuine and compassionate. It’s this sort of thing that reaffirms faith in people rather than putting up walls in despair.
Stoicism in action, focus on what you can control and shrug the rest of the shit off
