Q, I've asked this before. Since you're online again:
What can we do?
I'm an average person. I work 40 hours a week, married with kids, not old but not young.
I'm not the kind of person to sit back and just wait. I want to get involved. But these problems seem to be bigger than our local communities, and local politics doesn't have the national reach I feel like I'd need to help politically. At the same time, I'm not rich, famous, or have the network to act like those things. Running for a national office, like Congress, just seems like suicide and a waste of time. I'd never win.
So I ask again: What can we do? What is most helpful to you? More memes? Every time we "fire the memes" our attack falls flat and nothing actually happens. We get strung out like idiots.
