My question is related to this video.

I'm a first worlder living in the imperial core.

I've developed some internal theory to do some praxis for the movement, but I find it so hard to move forward due to intrusive thoughts on how complacent my useless coworkers are. They are the productive part of the company and joke about unionizing because they are noticing their increased exploitation, but they won't do it. They also make fun of trans people and blame racial minorities for their criminalization in the "personal responsibility" kind of manner. Any means of trying to reason with them goes in one ear and out the other. I loathe being around them, but I have difficulty getting around thought spirals and ruminations around them. I've given up hope of doing anything meaningful with these losers than help each other collect a paycheck. I have no means of getting them fired, don't want to give out too much info. I stick around because I can collect a paycheck with minimal oversight.

I'm disturbed by so many people's use of the phrase "it is what it is" around the rot of the social services of this country that is clearly going against their own interest. It seems nonsensical to me that so many people laugh and are complacent in the destruction around them because they are temporarily isolated from it.

I want to do some praxis but I'm just too enraged and depressed being surrounded by these people that love their bigotry but would hate to do anything to liberate themselves. How would you suggest containing my rage filled ruminations appropriately so that I can perform my praxis?
