Having gathered a bit of notoriety in this game, I often get people reach out to me asking me to take up their cause or "use my influence to gain access to powerful person X". They just don't "get it" that we're all individuals with limited capability and capacity to act. Offloading your cargo of hopes for a better world onto other people doesn't work; you have to take up your own power and steer your own ship.
It's a bit like “Don’t ask what JFK's return can do for you. Ask what you can do for JFK when he's back” — if you're sitting around waiting for a rescuer or icon to do the job, you've missed the whole point about returning power to the people and we have to take on more responsibility and involvement at a local level. If one problem is currently intractable, go solve another instead!
thats very true.
flip it for a second though.
I have reached out to certain white hats to let them know about pedos and trafficking rings that are actually employers (think companies in stock market) later to find out that ceos of these companies have resigned.
if its about children, reach out to others who you think are equipped to take down rings that are bigger than you.
while JFK Jrs return will be incredible, we have to focus on saving everyone while having faith that day of rejoicing will come 🙏🏼❤️⚡️
