I really like this framing. Personally, my health and general wellbeing is poor enough that I don't end up at many protests (or do much useful, activism wise), but my rage at the injustice of everything is one of the things that keeps me alive on my lowest days. It sucks to be someone whose very existence is politicised, but at the very least, it means that merely existing is an act of rebellion against the system.

In light of this, my news consumption strategy is effectively a battle between the green guilt and the blue despair, except my goal is to balance the two so that neither of them get so large that they crowd out the red.

It's all good, "from each according to their ability". I'll go to the protests, and you perform the acts of rebellion that you can do!
