Preparation never includes: overthink everything from every angle all the time.
There’s a line between aware and too aware, and learning everything there is to know can’t save you from reality when it happens.

Or if thats too much, go talk to your neighbors, or if that’s too much, go check out a library book and read it. And build upon that, and eventually maybe you can consider running for office and actually making a fucking difference in real tangible ways, or at least, find out who is in your local elections with your interests in mind, so you can support the fuck out of them.
Remember most control is given freely, most power is given freely. Take that shit back, so that when you start to feel empowered, you can really do something with it.
