>To what worries me the most is of learned helplessness. I’ve come to accept most of what you mentioned just because no-one else seems to care, why should I?

Yeah I'm definitely at this point right now five years into this and this would be the import of my comment really, just, why does no one care? Cause when no one cares about the whole, there's no hope of collective, rational engagement of problem-solving. The Hannity/Texas bit could be proabably be further fact-checked.

But perhaps it all comes down to what Chépe said on _Narcos_, "being an adult means accepting things you wish weren't true"

Edit: originally wrote "there's hope of rational engagement"
