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.

Outraged by the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, a wilderness survival trainer spent years undercover climbing the ranks of right-wing militias. He didn’t tell police or the FBI. He didn’t tell family or friends. The one person he told was a ProPublica reporter.

This guy is a hell of an example, but do not put yourself in harm's way blindly. Most resistance is going to be the "pecked to death by ducks" kind, and that's just fine.

Powerful stuff. I'm glad they've managed to get away safely, and that they've achieved some degree of success in their endeavours.

I couldn't imagine what it must be like embedded within a group who's ambitions you so vehemently object to.

Great Sunday reading material; paints an extremely vivid picture of the political landscape in the US. Thank you for sharing.
