Resist: It's Time

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.

Yeah, fair enough. A lot of the sharpness of my reaction was because of what happened on the last post, which to me was hella suspicious. You were just asking an interested question and I used it as an opportunity to talk about some stuff that bothered me the last time.

I did find more stuff about who's behind this group, but as I said in my edit, I actually think just showing up is probably better than poking around and doing a bunch of internet interaction with "resistance" or protest groups.

Also, the EFF's guide to safely attending a protest: https://ssd.eff.org/module/attending-protest

Heh, I kind of figured that, I caught the other post just before this one. No harm, no foul. You raised important points, and gave me chance to actually say what I was intending to be heard.

... just showing up is probably better than poking around and doing a bunch of internet interaction with "resistance" or protest groups.

You are 100% correct.
