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.
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

Yes.
These will print in b/w just fine. You might need to select "Fit to printable area" or "Fit to paper" to print it properly on 8.5x11.
Be aware, printers have unique fingerprints in yellow dots on their pages which mean any paper can be scanned and traced to which printer it came from. Probably not a problem here, but something to be aware of. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Printer_tracking_dots
It's definitely a risk, but I think that it's manageable. It's perfectly legal to print and post things. Even if the authorities start looking for people, tying the tracking dots to an individual becomes harder if the printer is older (records get lost or just superseded), bought via cash, or bought second hand. The bigger risk, I think, is being caught in the act and chased off or having the posters ripped down or otherwise destroyed.
Plus, risk is part of the game.
This will be perfect for the plotter at work tomorrow.
Suggestions for locations to hang them up?
Urban: Light poles, wherever you see other people posting stuff.
Suburban: Leave them in public restrooms, some grocery stores might still have bulletin boards
Rural ... good luck.
It is perfectly legal to leave flyers at people's houses, though you might want to be ready to gtfo. Do not put them in or on the mailbox.
Thank you 👍
