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 do you think those protections were won in other countries? Indeed those few that are in America? By asking nicely? By quietly waiting through six months of the demolition of rule of law and any form of backing for the little protections you do have?
Your comment belongs on X, with the other variations on "No, it's fine, just sit there, eventually the right date to express your dissatisfaction in a completely safe and risk-free way will come around and your children will thank you that you didnt risk your mortgage even if they express it mainly by sterilising themselves so they never have to be so beholden to a future that will never come as you were."
I never said just sit there, you are putting words in my mouth. I said to stop SHITTING on people who are trying to survive in a country that is designed to keep them down
