no, none of my action items are minimum effort, sorry. Defending democracy will never be a low strain activity. I'm organizing unions in my workplace by following the disruptive and worker-led Minnesota Model of organizing. We workers make the world go round. As the US labor movement gears up for a genuine general strike in 2028 (yes, we're following through with Fain's call to action), we need unions of all stripes to form. Labor unions, tenant unions, debtor unions, etc. Then after forming, we need unprecedented inter-union cooperation. It's ok to be tired and burnt out. Let yourself recover, and then continue the good fight.
