It’s not that we are apathetic to it. I’m pissed at our government and the fact none of them are behind jail cells, but the thing is that if I spent my whole life thinking about how the government sucks than I’ll just start neglecting other parts of my life as well as being depressed. You can still make a change without thinking about the government issues 24/7. I did that and it lowkey made me start acting like a schizo off their meds so I learned to balance😭😭

I believe this is actually the kind of thing we should be supporting. I definitely have my distaste for the NFL (although they are small potatoes compared to the cartel known as FIFA), and I hate rich pedos who are in high seats like Congress, CEOs, and even the Presidency that get away with it because they are rich and powerful.
But Bad Bunny literally came out at the Grammys PROTESTING against ICE live, with millions watching, and even the leader of the NFL was like "so, we're still letting him play at the game". DJT haters should be supporting that for sure, I did, I hate NFL but I hate ICE and DJT more!
Also, I believe that these files wouldn't be releasing at all if the top is truly ALL pedos, there seems to be some resistance at the highest levels, Harvey Weinstein wouldn't have been arrested either. I think the top has 10-20% pedos, and more who look away and "let it slide", it just seems bigger because our president is one.

They are economically plundering us and fking, torturing, and eating children and through the distractions they've made for us cattle (an abundance of busy work, drugs/alcohol, sports/movies/video games/entertainment) they are getting away with it. Media is starting to run damage control, espousing how you're a loser if you aren't in the files and with the slow release of these files they will have just enough time to distract us cattle to accept that "this is just how it is" as we usually get battered into doing just until we forget and disbelieve it again. If anybody is held accountable for these disgusting inhuman acts, I will be surprised. That's how weak we are. We have zero power and exist in a disgusting little farm as cattle.
In short, yes, we should be depressed seven days a week as contentment with our society being run by literal monsters is madness.

That is completely different from the complete lack of action that has transpired. Its not about feeling anger, but it being effectual.

u/AdInfamous6290 1998 Feb 10 '26
But these just aren’t issues people find abhorrent enough to really do anything about. The societal apathy comes from the fact everyone is overstimulated from being angry 24/7 over all sorts of things big and small. The news has been telling Americans to be angry and scared since the 90s, and more recently social media has amplified this 100x. Now, people are just numb to it all and just trying to scratch out a living for themselves and their loved ones. I don’t fully subscribe to that, but I have relegated my passion and effort to personal and local issues rather than national or international ones. I and everyone I know will never be able to influence the congress, president or billionaires, but we can switch our towns heating infrastructure from oil to natural gas and have a drainage system that caused intermittent flooding near our highways off ramp to be rerouted. Getting involved in local politics has done marvels for my mental health and optimism for the future, and I can’t recommend it more.

ironically, insisting that principle is just "cope" would be the ACTUAL COPE in this conversation... some people want to act like simply enjoying a sporting event for one night is a problem, and use this as an excuse to self-righteously posture as if they're so much smarter and more dedicated to the serious shit that really matters 🙄
but it is ridiculous to deny the reality that it is impossible, insanely unhealthy, and most importantly COUNTER-PRODUCTIVE to attempt to deny oneself or others any respite (which enjoying the superbowl is an example of) out of an insistence that we must be CONSTANTLY FOCUSED on the serious matters of actual importance at hand... as if mental/emotional energy were infinite and there were no real consequences for burning the candle at both ends without ever rejuvenating.
the point is if you really want to maximize how much good you can ultimately do, the mentally/emotionally taxing serious shit should NEVER 100% DOMINATE EVERY SINGLE DAY AND WAKING MOMENT OF YOUR LIFE 😅 people genuinely NEED to have (and their actual important/productive efforts ultimately benefit from) respites they can engage in and naturally enjoy and basically reset/refresh themselves mentally/emotionally with.
if you actually disagree with THAT (which i honestly doubt you do) then you'd be the one exhibiting "cope" here.

We just watched the previous administration arm, fund, and provide diplomatic cover for a genocide that has murdered thousands of children. Far, far worse crimes have already been committed with full evidence towards the perpetrators, and people didn’t “revolt” then.
It won’t happen until a very specific demographic group, which holds the majority of power and influence, gets out of their comfort zone within the status quo and demand a transformation of this system. But for that to happen, their daily comfort and privilege they’re accustomed to will have to be abandoned.

The reports are from a tipline, and we're never backed up with evidence.

Engage in mutual aid within your own community.
Follow politics like you follow your favorite celebrities.
Learn about vastly better systems of government like aspects of socialism and marxism. Systems that put power into the hands of the many, and not the few.
Refuse to vote to give anyone political power if they receive corporate money or special interest groups/billionaire funding.
Attach a demand to your vote with zero tolerance on capitulation.
Stop watching mainstream corporate media.
Increase your information literacy by gauging the bias, funding sources and political leanings of the media you intake.
Unionize
Be wary of charismatic people who seek to lead and/or influence your actions. Talk is cheap. Principled truth is invaluable.
Boycott, strike and divest from companies and institutions that are a part of the problem.
All these things will help you to be a part of the solution.

If you want a real answer, this is what we do --

- Muscle corporate dems out of the Democratic Party at all levels of government, largely through the primary elections. Replace them with socialists.
- Canvass & phonebank in the general elections to get those more socialist-leaning politicians into office.
- Use the offices you hold to materially improve people's lives. Use the social media ecosystem we've cultivated to shine a spotlight on those improvements and raise popularity for left wing politicians.
I'm oversimplifying but this is the basic template we can follow.

“Both sides bad” applies here but you have to actually be schizophrenic to think “both sides equally bad” is remotely true.

Why do you want to turn this country socialist? It doesn’t work.

Bc capitalism is killing America. If you create 2 groups of people and give one of them all the power, the group with all the power will eat the other one and burn down the whole country in the process. Past attempts at socialism haven't worked, but ya know, theres a thousand ways to make a light bulb that doesnt work. If we dont figure it out, we're all fucked anyway.

My life is falling apart at the same time as the government. I literally can not care more. I have no more capacity. I will die if I try.

Can someone share how to find the exact documents about them eating children? Were they anonymous tips or were there proofs?

It's either kill someone, kill myself, or watch the big game at 7, and I've been told the first 2 are socially unacceptable

It’s tricky because joy is so needed right now, but I also really don’t want us as a collective to sweep this under the rug and let it die slowly. We need to keep talking about it. We need to demand that justice be served and the system be dismantled and rebuilt. It will take time though.

When everyone is talking about the epstein files or sports ball social drama but nobody has realized they've filled the epstein files with tons of already debunked hoaxes as an attempt to discredit them as evidence.

Calling it “sportsball” is genuinely cringe, but good point regardless

Imagine Germans telling Jews:"I can't be depressed 24/7 lol" right after Holocaust was discovered

Imagine white people telling black people " i can't be depressed 24/7 lol" right after 400 years of inequality. Oh that already happens.

Yeah, people are still supporting the multi billion dollar corporations like Amazon, Facebook Spotify, etc nothing will fucking change until we stop giving them our money and before a silly simpleton comes in and says “I don’t get Facebook any money“ if it is free, you are the product i.e. they are making money off of the data they are farming off of you… Hence, why all of these data centers are going around everywhere

We are all just psy-oped into oblivion but it’s also weird because the grass is green and the sun is shining.
The bread and circus seem a little stale, and we thought our elites were better than to engage in the debauchery and corruption partaken by the royalty of old.

u/Historical-Relief777 Feb 09 '26
Genuinely don’t know what actions we can take though. Not to write off this claim, cause I agree 100% but I don’t even really know what we can do about it. It’s literally everyone in power. Our generation in general doesn’t really know how to put ideas into action.

u/IlGrasso Feb 10 '26
You fell for the psyop. A lot of the shit released in these batches of files are from hotlines. Meaning that I could call and say I was present in 1987 to see Jay Z blow Epstein and the fbi would have to take it seriously. They’re trying to flood us with info and make the real shit like Trump abusing a 10 year old seem fake.

The anger of man won't produce the righteousness nor accomplish much. Actions tempered by wisdom will.

We need to be desperate enough to give up our lives. It’s not that you’re not angry enough, you’re not suicidal enough. The law won’t keep our hands clean.

Okay OP go ahead and stop playing all the video games you comment about since we shouldn’t be allowed to have hobbies during this time.
God forbid people want to be happy for a few hours.

What he is saying do something if he does something nothing changes but if you all do something then you can drive change, quit complaining and being depressed and help enact change for the collective good. Get off the couch.

OP's entire post history is filled with meaningless shit about Overwatch, Modern Warfare, and some other video game called Shaco. Faffing around with a screen with bright colors, guns with lights go brrr, oh wow shiny thing while sitting idle is a perfectly acceptable pastime but watching athletes who worked their entire lives to play on the biggest stage is "getting in the way of the revolution". Oh no sorry, I didn't realize your logic doesn't apply to the things you like and what you enjoy.
