I don’t think anyone should be posting this defeatist ass shit from Reddit. For all we know it could have been posted by AI. Yes, shit is bad. It’s probably going to get A LOT worse. But we shouldn’t take it lying down.

Posts like this that just point out how bad things are without offering ANY action are exactly what Trump and Musk want. They want us to look at this crap, feel overwhelmed, and give up. Instead those who want to resist fascism should be planning ahead.

Every single little act of resistance counts.

I know it’s hard. I’m fucking stressed out, anxious, overwhelmed, and just TIRED but I’m working out the little things I’m going to do to push back and it’s making me feel slightly better.

Get someone you know to quit Twitter and/or Facebook. Get the fuck off those apps if you’re not already.

Start saving books, papers, information, etc.

Go to a protest if you can.

Support independent journalism.

Limit your spending. Stop buying anything but the essentials.

Most importantly, talk with the people you care about and trust and build a support network.

I guess Glenn has to start parroting party talking points (racism) for when he tries to make a run for president. Nevermind that non-citizen voting is near impossible.

Reminder: Glenn thinks he deserves to lead because he has money.

They’re beating this drum now so they can claim the election was stolen by “illegals” voting in swing districts. They just need to (at a minimum) challenge a couple thousand votes in 2-3 states.

Depends on the role and company you’re applying for but I’d say if you’re going for something entry level or if you have no experience they help.

I know some helpdesk places near me require A+, NET+, and SEC+ at hire or within the first 6 months. Whereas I’m a small business IT manager and I look at those certs as bonuses for entry or mid level positions. I’m way more interested in your work experience than how many certs you have.
