I feel there is very little we can do individually to change people's minds or turn them away from fascism, or even to get them to stop turning their own brains into soup, but you can still show them there are consequences to their actions.
Telling my own friends / relations what I think of them and cutting ties with them has done nothing to bring them back in line with normal human values, but at least I am not burdened with the guilt of my association, and maybe one day enough people will cut them off that the loneliness gets to them and they begin to re-evaluate their lives.
It is literally the least I can do. Any sadness I felt was heartbreak that they could be so shitty to begin with.
You can't do this if you're financially dependent on them. And with the state of the global economy, yeah...
I'd genuinely rather be homeless than rely on the blood that fucked me up in the first place lmao
Given how badly the homeless are treated in the US, many cannot make the same call.
For sure. Take what you can, give nothing back.
