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.

Totally agree. If people from the right have to come to their senses the hard way, it's still a positive thing for them and everyone else. The working class needs to come together any way possible.
I would guess from watching some of these videos that a good deal of the people with their pitchforks out voted against fascism. You can see some people just sitting quietly while the crowd jeers.
We had a kind of similar situation around these parts when the school board "debates" were going on last year. The fascists were trying to take over our board, and there was a lot of local organizing to keep that from happening. Those debates were packed, just like these town halls are. (We were successful; none of the fascists got elected.)
There are people organizing, and following through with action. Now Republican elected officials are being encouraged not to have town halls. Fine, go to where they are and make sure they hear you. They have houses, cars, local offices.
Yeah a slick talking (to them) con man told them to hate their neighbors and hand him the coffers. I just want the marks to catch on
