But what about the darn title of the post, huh? What's this armchair activism? Simple - we can and should affect our government without leaving the comfort of home. The same internet that gives us easy access to information gives us easy ways to communicate with our representatives directly. We can post on their official social media pages, email them and send messages via contact forms. If we prefer, we can get the information we need from their websites, write letters in that word processor that came with the computer, print it and mail it (don't laugh - this is tremendously effective). We can skip the writing and just click on the phone number and call directly.
