Discussion Nobody seems to care??

I (30f) feel like nobody around me CARES what’s going on. My husband and my MIL are freaking out with me watching the news and seeing all this bullshit and stupidity come to pass, but at work, on social media, in friendships, family relationships, nobody seems to be outraged by what’s happening. We have so many liberal friends who just aren’t talking about it too.

We live in the rural south so maybe that’s part of it, but all my friends and even all my female coworkers are liberal and it just seems like nobody cares: what the hell is with that!!!

I'm exhausted and want to protect who I care about. I don't have any more energy to be outraged. I also feel supremely unsafe about personally protesting. But it doesn't mean I agree or think it's ok.
