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
We should change the magazine's name from "Prepare to Resist" to "Resist". It's time.
Excellent idea. Handled.
Fascism is here.
It's in the White House.
It's in Congress.
Buy a gun.
At this point, we're gonna be killed anyway, might as well go down swinging.
This is what I'm more scared of than what Trump decides to do. The fucking wackos out there with their own agenda emboldened to do this shit.
I've owned, but haven't actively carried a firearm. I started on inauguration day because my wife isn't white.
Both of you should carry pepper spray.
Ideally, pepper gel. Less likely to get it in your own eyes.
She carries now too.
I removed comments in an unproductive thread here. This is not indicative of whether I personally agree with "one side or the other" - only that the comment thread is unproductive.
Squabbling is a distraction.

Maybe the good residents of Kentucky should be fighting back against this vitriol.
