We are still in this together, but "this" is going to be real different in the very near future. This demands a different kind of "we."
The French Resistance during Nazi occupation played important roles delivering downed Allied airmen back to safety, supplying military intelligence, and acts of sabotage.
The Underground Railroad is estimated to have brought 100,000 freedom seekers to safety between 1810 and 1850.
It's time.
Rules
- Do not gatekeep resistance
- Do not organize specific subversive plans here.
- Do not identify yourself or anyone else here.
- Do brainstorm general ideas about how to support people who need it and stymie the efforts of fascists
- Do share thoughts on how to be personally prepared for subversive action

As far as I can tell, achieving actual changes within this system, that do not lead to humanity's near term death, is quite literally impossible. They are burning this bitch down. It's not how I would have done it, but it's done. There is no saving the USA from this. Nothing will be going back to "normal." The rules by which our country has functioned have been so thoroughly trampled, they are unrecognizable. We are in for such a hellish future, that nearly any method of changing course is justified.
My point being, I think it's very naive to expect ANY change for the better to come about without significant bloodshed.
