On one side of my family, a cousin just posted that "things keep getting worse" and that "she couldn't be friends with someone who voted for Trump."

On the other side I have a cousin posting gratitude/uplifting/inspirational quotes while trying to orange pill his friends.

Life really is what you make of it.

It's funny how things are getting better and worse at the same time depending on whether you're red pilled or blue pilled.

And things are just always getting better if you're orange/purple pilled.

if you're getting your news from the dying system, it's making you sad and if from the people building the new system it's making you happy

Lula and Haddad raising taxes in Brazil and many people saying that the country wasn't moving forward because the population didn't want to pay more taxes.

Sad. That kind of person votes and makes a country communist.

Some will be able to navigate change and thrive and some (perhaps through no fault of their own) will not.

focus your energy on surrounding yourself with the former and you will prosper

True, but former and latter are all family.

they're both living far away from me

I just miss my cousin.

Need to reconnect with her.

I am so proud of her for everything that she accomplished and her service to our country. I want to tell her that, but the situation with that side of the family is turbulent. I don't know how to proceed forward for fear of awkward topics in conversation.

fear is your enemy

This is true.

I will give this some stronger consideration and figure out the best way to move forward gracefully.

I know it's hard and complicated with shit like that, but if you really want to do it, you can

Write her a letter.

Absolutely

I don't have any family on Nostr.

same

Well shucks
