People here will literally tell you “I don’t want to hear about it” but then complain about the gas prices. It feels like a total Don’t Look Up moment.

    Fatigue. There’s just been so much and it’s kinda fucking draining if you stay plugged in to it all. It’s not like doomscrolling will make the situation any better either.

    Also like, that was kind of the point of Don’t Look Up. People do just shut these things out. If you understood the movie you should know the answer to your question.

      Actually doing something would make the situation better, but most people can’t be bothered. I’m sorry, if you didn’t vote or go to demonstrations (unless you have a very good reason) , I’m not feeling sorry for you. You’re obviously not bothered enough.

          These yokels just kinda ignore that unless you’re a federal legislator or a billionaire, you are utterly powerless to do anything meaningful about this beyond virtue signalling.

          make grandstanding statements on the internet, duh. like vaguely demanding others do something!

          Oh and then if the person replies you call them names and tell them that they are a fascist/nazi/etc. because if you aren’t doing ‘something’ you are clearly assisting the bad people!!
