    I mean, I feel you. But you’re in this political system whether or not you pull the voting lever. Abstaining from elections doesn’t spare anyone’s life overseas.

    Find the folks you can support and support them how you can. Hope for a brighter future. Hug your parents, your spouse, your kids, and your friends. That’s all anyone can be expected to do.
