It's a foregone conclusion!

We need to do something. We are very few who are aware of this. People have become complacent with whatever happens and are taking it as "it is what it is". I don't want say zombies, but they kinda are :(

It's apathy. People are too concerned with being in survival mode versus living. This is again a feature of capitalism, not a bug.

Suggestions for action? I'm in the education stage, but I'm having difficulty imagining beyond that. I've participated in protests and some similar activism, but haven't seen much in the way of results.
