Resist: It's Time

0 readers

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.

October 18, 2025, may be a turning point. The administration has been gearing up to stomp a jackboot down on people who would oppose them. There's going to be a lot of us out there marching, and some of us might end up under that heel.

Be prepared. Bring water. Have an escape plan. Be ready to help those near you.

This is also important: if you aren't able to directly participate, for whatever reason, you are still needed. Just like there needs to be ten times the number of support people in the wings behind fighting troops, we will need you in the wings supporting us.

I'm going to be focused on the world in my immediate vicinity, so I'm going to need you to post relevant breaking news as it comes up. That way I can check in from time to time to keep abreast of what's going on elsewhere, and pass that information to the people near me. People who need to escape are going to need somewhere to go, and maybe a way to get there. They'll need food, water, medical care, and moral support when they get there.

We're in this together. Wherever you are, whether you're carrying a sign on the street, keeping yourself safe away from the fray, or anywhere in between - you are necessary and you are still part of this.

The same world that has illegal abductions with masked individuals sending people to deathcamps, and ramming people with unmarked cars, the very same real world? Recheck your history on how fascism got eradicated.

You ought to be reading more closely.

Notice that I didn't disagree with your statement to "be armed," but rather offered relevant caution about what being armed at a protest may result in, twice closing with "Know what you're doing and what the consequences may be."

I'm leaving this whole exchange here, because I think it's useful, but I reserve the right to change my mind about that.

Useful is: when will deathcamps be demolish?
What tactics will you provide to abolish them?
What will you do, if you get Hamased?

Did you want to take anything back now, or no?

You ought to be reading more closely.

I've repeated my own statements multiple times now. I'm not going to repeat yours.

Then you already have your answer on how effective this repeated protest will yield consequently.
