Are you a busy person who wishes you could do more? Start where you are and take one step forward. Commit to one five minute act of resistance on a regular schedule you can keep: once a day or once a week. Do what you can.

Social media is exploding with disinformation. Push back actively to see the content you actually want.
Every time you see something you like, interact with it. Comments are best. If you miss someone’s wall, go to it and interact—it’ll show up in your feed. When you see content you don’t want, take a moment to hide or block it. Your feed will improve quickly, and your social media neighbors will benefit too!
