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.

The Comfort of False Equivalence
There’s a seductive kind of cowardice masquerading as wisdom in modern discourse: the insistence that all extremes are created equal. It’s what allows the centrist to shrug and say, “Well, both sides are dangerous,” as though morality and method exist on a balanced scale, and history is simply a record of shared mistakes. For MAGA, this rhetorical laziness isn’t just useful. It’s strategic.

So you literally are both sidesing right now. Lmao. Focus on your own rightward shifting politics instead of pretending to be an expert on what is happening in a country you know nothing about.

I lived in your country for 15 years. All your commentary has shown me is I know more about your country's workings than you do.

Sounds like you know jack shit about my country. Lmao.

Hoo boy, you sure showed me! Damn, I'm never coming back from that one, a zinger clearly birthed by an American education. You're right - your thoughtless regurgitation of American propaganda is absolutely superior.

Thank you for reminding me why I left that cesspit.
