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.
Rules
- Do not gatekeep resistance
- 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
- Do share thoughts on how to be personally prepared for subversive action

How long do you think there will be a job for you?
years, progress is fast, but not fast enough to replace rural jobs before those in the megacities.
Some people are going to be able to go march. Some people are not. Not every action will be suitable for every person.
If you're a person who is not able to go march, there are still plenty of things you can do, even if it's as small as making sure that you have space in your home for people who might need safety on short notice.
Nothing any of us do today, or tomorrow, or next week is going to make any difference all by itself. Instant gratification is simply off the table. Our cumulative efforts, great and small, over time, can be successful eventually.
