uspol (sui mention)
I tend to keep at arm's reach with current politics.
When I was engrossed in it a year or so back, it made me incredibly depressed and suicidal. I eventually stopped earlier this year to keep myself sane.
I don't want people to think I'm apathetic, that I'm indifferent. I can support and help when I can to stop the rise of american fascism.
I just can't fight alongside you.
uspol, rallies
I remember last year when I marched in an "abolish ICE" rally. It felt like some accomplishment, even if in the grand scheme of things I didn't do a whole lot besides walk several miles.
It's something I don't know if I could do again. I'm kinda afraid to do stuff like that alone these days considering some of the events that's happened in Portland over the past year.
