The thing to learn is that there's no hope to be found in the 'democratic' system that's in place. It's going to get worse, not because we didn't vote for the genocidal fascist with the exact same policies as the other uncouth genocidal fascist, but because of more fundamental forces are going to continue to play out either way. It's about getting past that step in 'what should I do' to the next one.
You can struggle with yourself over the premise but once you acknowledge it's true, you have to pick yourself up and move on to planning for the future we're stuck with and how to connect that end with the future we all deserve.
