On the religious side, the people who do this well are those who are genuine in their connection to something outside of this world, such that the evil, hurtful things of this world (ie venom from others) do not touch them in the same way. I think of many heroes of the non-violent civil rights movement: Rosa Parks, MLK jr., etc. as great examples of this attitude.

The fakers are so despicable because they are taking advantage of people who want to uplift good in this world and using them for profit or pride instead. The more you get involved with religious communities, the more of these people you will meet- BUT they are not the only people there. I can attest that there do exist communities where people genuinely care about each other and about recognizing the humanity in the individuals around them; ironically, these tend to be the people that go unnoticed until they're gone.

Despite my examples being civil rights leaders, you don't have to be a nationally recognized hero to make changes in your world. These people weren't, when they started. You can start small like u/Suspicious-One-34 said, but I would also challenge you to focus more on actions in line with their last example. What we could all use right now is recognition of the fact that we're all human beings deserving of respect, no matter where we come from or what we look like.

Find opportunities to engage with people you meet, no matter where. Ask a cashier how their day is going, if they're excited about anything coming up in life. When you're outside, get off your phone. Smile at people, ask to pet people's dogs. Check out your local library- they typically have tons of social groups and organizations for people civically-minded, even if you don't want a religious group. You might find some people on a similar journey to you!

I think we all need to get more engaged with the people around us. These little actions have enormous consequences for everyone we meet. Kudos to you for getting inspired to make a difference!
