    Here’s an idea: focus your attention on your community. Join an organization and build coalitions locally. Do the work to improve the material conditions of those around you, acting in good faith with solidarity toward your neighbors.

    Then, when you’ve realized how inane and pointless it is to generalize about populations numbering into the millions, mind your own fucking business and quit wishing ill on people you will never meet. Compassion fatigue is your problem, and calling the population of an entire state terrible is just bullshit no matter which way you cut it.

    We don’t need your kindness, we don’t need saving, we need cooperation and community. If that’s not in your wheelhouse, then keep to yourself.
