Ignore all the suffering in the world and just abuse my white privilege to have a trophy wife who secretly hates me and a middle management job at Amaz*n or some corporate firm where I "put the papers on Johnson's desk by Friday" and flirt with my secretary all day long.

Like just imagine how blissfully happy you'd be if you could ignore the inherent evil that exists in all facets of modern life and the only time you feel motivated to do anything is to "vote blue no matter who" once every 4 years just so you can pretend that you've made a difference.
