But it’s not me that’s wrong, it’s everyone else.

Isn’t it though?
- car ownership is rising in the Netherlands
- voting for politicians that own multiple houses
- reading news from billionaires
- buying from billionaires

You could say the individual feels toothless.

i am literally going in-patient on Monday and then entering a 90-day mental health residential community because i am currently unable to function. i recently lost my job and even had the FBI show up at my house. i am spiraling, i am going fucking insane with rage and fear. i’m going to lose my 13 year relationship if i don’t learn some new coping skills and stabilize myself.
…and i’m pissed. my mental illnesses have been severely exacerbated by the rise of fascism in America. how the fuck am i not supposed feel threatened? i am LGBT, i am an outspoken communist—i’m a large part of what this administration just labeled as an enemy and a terrorist. of course i am falling apart and feeling the need to “get them” before they get me.

I truly don’t know if that is an option or not but if so there should be a massive class action suit against them all for causing collecting CPTSD for this nation.

I just wanted to add this piece of pure genius by some friends of mine. Maybe it helps to cope, maybe it helps to feel understood.

i am an outspoken communist
Um…
I mean I repect your rights to hold those beliefs, but you do know that the US, as well as many western countries, are actively hostile to anyone self-proclaiming to be a “communist”, right. In the US, for example, a non-citizen proclaiming to be a “communist” will most likely get deported. And btw, I’m not saying thay I agree with these policies, just explaining the reality.
What are your actual beliefs anyways? In the context of US politics (probably most western countries as well), the word “communist”, in the view of the authorities, generaly refers to those who support authoritarian regimes/parties such as the USSR’s and PRC’s “communist party”.
If you tell the average person in the west that you are a “communist”, they wouldn’t ever think anarchism, they would think “oh this person supports dictatorships”. Do you understand my point? Most people do not understand nuance.
I personally would not use these labels like because they contain connotations about authoritarianism. Is there an alternative word you can use? Or maybe just explain you views without relying on labels like “communist” because, again, most people don’t understand nuance. Saying “I’m left-of-center, and support policies like UBI, community funded (tax-funded) universal free healthcare and free education, etc…”, I think this sound a lot better than “Socialism”. In your case, maybe use “I support the working-class owning factories, warehouses, that they work on” rather than “I’m a communist”.

i wouldn’t identify myself as a communist, i am mentioning it on here. i am well aware of these concerns, trust me. i appreciate the reminders tho!

I find these articles so irritating. They sound so tone-deaf, throwing around clinical terms to say people are sad, while refusing to even consider any solutions.
I wish they’d stop all this “mental health” fluff that is just toxic positivity or a call for it; but if the people were talking amongst themselves instead of in 1-on-1 counseling, they people might go from “I’m feeling sad” to “this world makes us sad” and change things!! oohohooooo so scary!! :O

So how could society take matters in their hand and change everything?
As long as people have conflicting goals they will fight each other instead of building society together.
sharkfucker420@lemmy.ml 2 weeks ago
Remove the conflicting goals (class)
Hint: this requires revolution
plyth@feddit.org 2 weeks ago
The proletarians fight among themselves. Unifying them with the middle class doesn’t help much.
Revolution without a goal will not change much.

Everything we do marches us forward on the path to extinction due to climate change. If that isn’t a conflicting goal I don’t know what is.
Rebuilding community is the first step. Capitalism is on its usual decay path to fascism, an ideology based on us fearing each other more than the state. Challenging that notion is the first step to getting heads to roll.

This picture is old enough to have depression, and it’s still relevant

It’s never too young to have depression ✨🪁

Big oil prefer us to feel hopeless about climate change, rather than doing something about it and aiming one’s anger at them.
Think about which actions, even small ones, you can take to reduce dependency on fossiel fuel, and oppose big oil peacefully.
