To me, what’s different is that the modern republican party seems to think that I’m an enemy of the people. Bush was awful but I never felt like he personally wanted to harm me just for existing. I knew Bush would send emergency aid to a democratic Voting area, no question. The “enemy” was abroad. Now it’s within.

I’ve been here for 14 years and own a stroller. Someone will always help, even in less dense areas. It’s common courtesy. I’d guess more people would actually induce a bystander effect. Same thing with asking for directions.

Start local. Where I live we have ranked choice voting for mayor.
