A good example is the "Sounds good, won't work" response from one of these banned accounts to the post about formal impeachment of trump.

They pretend that impeachment "sounds good" so you think they aren't biased, but then put forward the idea that it won't work anyway. The goal is to make you feel that there's nothing you (or any honest politician) can do to make things better.

This is not true. Let's take for example the on going impeachment.

What's happening: Democrats already gathered enough evidence to conclude that Trump abuse his office power so now they're just going through the formal process to get those stuffs on records. What the Republican doing in response is to craft this story that Trump didn't do anything wrong.

What is likely to happen: the vote probably not going happen until after new year but the Democrat will probably fail to impeach. Why? Because you need 2/3 of the house vote and right now it is at a standstill 50/50. The Republican is not going to change their stance unless they feel actual pressure in the upcoming election.

If the leading runner for Democrat is someone like Bernie Sanders, Republican is not going to care because they don't feel threaten.

Voting and spread awareness is a strong way for you to make an impact.

People have become complacent, divided, and afraid of their government. Its working but some are fighting like in HK and others. The US has become home of the complacent and coward.

while the basis of nihilism is close to that, it doesn't mean that you should just give up. It's a useful mindset to start caring about better things and disregard others.

FYI they're in places like LSC too, and were likely involved in gamergate.

You really have to be vigilant about the psychological warfare, we're being carpet bombed.
