    You either find a way to cope or live your life worrying about something ultimately out of your control. As long as I’m voting and spending my money thoughtfully then I believe I’m doing enough.

      Food insecurity is something outside of most people’s control, last I checked, humans can only cope without food for about a week before death sets in.

        Then I guess they will live their life worrying about something outside their control and ultimately die.

            It must be so tiring pretending to care about every single issue of the world. You must be a real white savor. I hope all the struggling people can hang on long enough for you to come save them.

            I have empathy for others while understanding that their situation is outside of my control. I do small things like vote and help where I can but beyond that there is no point in harming your mental wellbeing when you are not in a position to help.
