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.

How are there so many people in the US with guns shooting at each other and poorer people, but not the rich? It's like they literally live in "Don't Look Up".

I've said this before, as a Canadian I am dumbfounded that no one has picked up a gun or even just walked up and punched someone in the face. It actually makes me fear a lot less the looming trade and water wars with America. Y'all are fucking pussies and just lay down at the first sign of confrontation.

They say a good guy with a gun can defeat a bad guy with a gun, but there are mass shootings all the time, and the good guy. never seems to show up.

And when they do the cops shoot them because there's a dude running around with a gun during a mass shooting.

Apologies. I was generalizing.

Correct.

and just lay down at the first sign of confrontation.

We've been laying down for decades. Too fat to get up. Exhausted all energy on blaming Them.

The only then we disagree on is Them
