I wish there was more. Nothing I've done seems very effective. Being in Oklahoma, that's how I've felt my whole life. Anyone I vote for loses. Any time I protest, it happens anyway. Any time I volunteer, it's too small.

My friends and I have recently started a small support group to share survival skills, gardening, canning, and basic marksmanship to recently threatened, marginalized, and like minded people but that doesn't fix the overall problem. I've taught a lot, learned a lot, but I just don't see it getting better.

I feel powerless, and I guess that's the intent.

Welcome to Putin's Russia. To Franco's Spain. To Pinochet's Chile. To Xi's China. To Trump's America.

I ran to help other countries fight who used to be my country.

Not going to say I'm proud, or it's what I would have wanted to do, but also honestly don't think I could make a real difference at home, the rednecks are rampaging far too hard to stop yet.

Hoping they Tucker themselves out a bit before we can really start the resistance at home, but also worried by then it will be too late.
