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.

- 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

I am 12 and this is very deep
Riots also gave rise to mussolini and hitler so idk if this is such a W sentiment. Yes riots can be good, but riots arent inherently good.
Basically, there are good riots and bad riots.
Be part of the good riots.
There are riots, and their moral motivations and overall effect will vary
There need to be riots and their effectiveness will decide the fate of the US population.
France is nice.
No Nice is in France.
pourquoi pas les deux
The Reign of Terror wasn’t a walk in the park by any stretch.
Didn't say it was. People should be individually and collectively prepared for shit to go real sideways. The age of peaceful transition of power in the US is over, and hopefully when we're through this, we'll be more like modern France.
Riots can mean change
In if the change persists and is successful, then this rioters are heros
