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.

often they don't even know about it happening.

If you have so little that no one would notice, then cash in a safety deposit box is better in every way. Monero dropped 15% in a day last month. Yes it bounced back but it's not stable. If you bought Monero 5 years ago, you'd still be at a loss today.
