I don’t even know what this text is in reference to and I have no concrete suggestions immediately. But I will be thinking, connecting, and sharing in the coming months as a strategy emerges. Trumpism can still be defeated. The election was plan A but it’s time to come up with plan B. I am thinking that it’s going to take massive organized civil disobedience. We directly disrupt their ability to govern and harm marginalized people.
But it’s going to take more than just me, so I ask everyone here to be ready and participate in whatever capacity you can.
My "text" is a direct response to your comment that proceeded it. Im not sure how that's confusing.
The fact of the matter is the election results are legal, certified, and recognized by every country on Earth. As much as I hate it, and I really really hate it, that's reality.
Unless things get ridiculously out of hand, which has yet to be seen, the only real thing anyone can do is create protests and marches, and vote for change when the time comes.
If you think you're going to create a "resistance army" you're going to be checked very hard by reality. Your little keyboard warrior "massive organized civil disobedience" will be as lame as Jan 6.

SORRY Y’ALL, THIS IS MY WHISPER. MY VOICE JUST REALLY CARRIES.
Speaking of your voice ACTUALLY carrying: As a kid, my voice changed to a deep bass really early, so when, attention ravaged with undiagnosed ADHD, I talked in class, the teacher would instantly know it was me 😮💨😄
(thanks, I didn't realize that. I appreciate it)
