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.
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

If it shows broad support for that specific change, then perhaps someone who is more apt to do the hard work that is necessary will be bolstered by it. Or perhaps some people can be convinced to stop standing by and help the rest of us.
There's already broad support.
The vast majority of Americans do not want an oligarchy.
Asking them nicely and telling them no isn't doing anything.
They don't care about signs and paperwork
It's a fucking coup
Asking more people to stop interacting with them could help. Some people are not quite evil but just don't care. Give them a better option for themselves personally, and they may decide fascism isn't cool.
I do agree with you generally though. These people aren't going to stop easily.
All efforts great and small. We don't gatekeep resistance.
