Not an original point but worth saying again - there is not a single element in this picture that identifies any of these folks as law enforcement agents. No badges, no uniforms, no vests. Out of context it just looks like a bunch of random guys are kidnapping a mayoral candidate.

This is spot-on. "Learned helplessness often occurs in response to stressful situations or traumatic experiences in which a person feels they have limited control over the outcome."
The antidote: ACTION. Set goals, take steps. Small ones lead to bigger ones.

Op-Ed: Travis Kelce decided to reinforce the status quo by saying it will be an “honor” to have Donald Trump watch him play in the Super Bowl. But now is not the time to show respect to the office of the President of the United States as he does not seem to respect many of the citizens he governs. ⤵️
No Travis Kelce, It's Not an ‘Honor’ to Have Trump Watch You Play Football
Now is actually not the time to be respectful to the office of the President of the United States.

For me, the thing that knocked the wind out of me with this election is that I dared to believe America would get it right THIS time, that America was ready for a Woman President.
It hurt having that blind faith in neighbors, friends, and strangers smacked out of me.
Dammit, America. 😞
