Maybe also throw in a "what would you do" staged events to specifically filter for people with empathy.

Serving power certainly let's a person do more, just don't be surprised when people point out how it isn't helping.

There were the government shutdowns but they always cave. Then there's getting arrested while protesting (not breaking the law BTW, just straight up intimidation), which is honestly the bare minimum at this point. Look up Kat Abu for an example.

I really wish I understood the Chinese legal system better. It's like they operate under a different constellation of rights and it isn't immediately obvious to me how these cases play out. Maybe I should try finding some modern legal dramas from the mainland....

I phone banked for Harris but she was making our jobs harder by taking unpopular positions. What will you have me say to the voter who won't vote for a Newsom presidency because they take AIPAC money? Because I was told to just move on and call the next person.

The guy literally does comedy tours. I guess I'll just go ahead and buy those tickets...
