4. Channel that anger into things productive to the cause

Call your representative and let them know how you feel. Write to your local OP ed page. Get people registered to vote, etc.

If you are okay with living on the dark side, troll Republicans comments sections to get them pissed off. Just don't expect a logical debate- I really do mean "troll" them. Sealioning is encouraged. Or you could play the part and be an especially repulsive MAGAT just to make them look bad.
