If you’re going to take such a nihilistic approach you could at least take a nihilistic approach while doing something to try to make things better for everyone left behind.
Go obstruct fascists at a protest, be the next tank man and be a hero. Help with directing traffic around protests (a critical but risky job to do!) and get involved with whatever local movement you can to find action you can take
Or, if your risk tolerance is too low for any kind of action like that then don’t be a nihilist and instead find what small acts you can do to help even if that’s purely in a harm reduction capacity. Help out at a food bank, set up a little free food pantry/library, print zines to distribute, put anti-fascist stickers in public places and cover/remove fascist propaganda. Help friends and neighbors in need. Connect with neighbors so you have someone you can lean on when you’re in need
