Maybe those people should have done something BEFORE Trump got reelected. Now it just won't matter anymore. They are just gonna be the first to go into the camps.

Don't give in to the despair that want to have. An authoritarian's greatest power lies less in their direct power and more in the hopelessness and culture of fear they want you to have. Self censorship is usually far stronger than direct censorship

They want you to never fight in any way, because you might reveal them to be weaker than you thought

Even if you are fighting a losing fight on a single issue, make it a fight! Everything you can drag out is time they can't spend making something else worse

Best time to start was DEFINITELY yesterday.

But the second-best time to start is still today. We have the advantage of being up against incompetents. That might buy us enough time to save ourselves. Might. But we won't know unless we fight for it.

If you and Dems really believed that, Biden wouldn't allow a peaceful transfer of power.
