Thursday GNR: Look for the Helpers [1]
['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.']
Date: 2025-03-06
Strategy: Pick out what you can do to resist, especially what others can’t do. Look for the Resistance, for those who mean to do the greatest good for everyone, and avoid every kind of Doom & Gloom. I follow a lot of news in order to report on it, so you don’t have to. So don’t take in more than you can handle. DVR the news if you need to follow it, and zap anything not helpful.
We have lots of such sources, including our regular list below. Many more turn up here and there, and particularly more often on Bluesky. Meanwhile those who have declared us to be the enemy in the Broligarchy and among the MAGAdroids and the Christian Nationalists are engaged in a massive corporate and social suicide pact.

x MAGA is a suicide pact. It’s driven by hatred from the belief that we all look down on them. No amount of victories will ever give them what they so desperately crave, our respect. — A Man Has No Name 🇺🇦 (@manhasnoname.bsky.social) February 23, 2025 at 2:58 PM
