Let's start with this: Can you do anything personally to save the world? I'm not talking incremental personal improvement rainbows and butterflies horseshit, I'm saying can you personally do anything to stop what is clearly a catastrophic trajectory?
If you can, do it. If you can't, which I believe nobody can at this point, it's time to stop worrying and live the life you have left.
Spend more time outside, learn to paint acrylics, go get some pussy.
Why torture yourself and live in misery? Why allow all the evil people trying to terrorize you to succeed? Fuck that noise.

This is really bad advice, you sound like a 15 y/o.
Ahh yes. The better advice is to protest and waste time. 😂
