This is making a good point, but I still have to be here for my kids. I’ll donate, vote, and argue, but I’m not fighting anyone off because my kids need me.
Leaving the country is also an option we’re looking into, but my wife thinks we should stay here and continue to do what little we can.
The government doesn’t need you to agree with them, but they do need your tax dollars. Well educated, high earners leaving does a lot. Being the recipient of those people is a large part of the US’s dominance over the past 70 years
Except US citizens have to pay US taxes even when living abroad. Something that does not exist in most countries, because it’s as dumb as it sounds. Yes, they are taxed twice (by both countries).
If those high earners were protesting and fighting, feeding those with less, supporting rebellion with their money and knowledge instead of working or fleeing, it would certainly solve that problem.
The plan is already in place with my family for when your dictator presses your countrymen into service to come for our water, oil and rare earth metals. It has been so since drumphkins started talking about annexation and instigated economic warfare on our country and we in turn heard crickets from 'murica. We won’t be working, on our couches or fleeing to the best European country that will take us. Our kids may embark on a European journey but we will be right here at home.
The kits are stocked and the truck is ready to roll with five other like minded individuals. Turns out we might only be going to Ottawa though to protest our own government before that happens at this rate.
Fucking right it’s easy to say that. Because it’s the truth.
Meh, its ok, its really just a truth of the universe at this point. No changing it. If there was the sentiment from everyone would be, “right, let’s do something right now.”
Im also not infallible so maybe the sentiment changes.
If only there was something we could do anonymously like some machine that lets us all communicate and shape culture and awareness that was free and could be done in our own homes with massive effects
Need better networks and some key spaces that produce great content that keeps story’s alive. Just think back the past year of all the shit that has occurred. Almost all of it lasted 24hrs. The left don’t seem to be aware of online engagement and capture where as the right do. They’re still talking about Hillary and her emails with the same energy when it occurred. I still see people bringing up Rosanne. That’s because they have people keeping it alive and creating content. They don’t create these things for the hell of it. It’s strategic and even links new content to older stuff. I find hanging out of left wing spaces people are just reacting to news as it comes and then forgetting.

Leaving does more than staying

Their kids need them too. The point of solidarity is accepting the same risks as them because they don’t get to make that choice.
That’s beautiful. Incidentally, do you have kids yourself?
Does being a parent make you care less about other people’s kids?
More, if anything.
My kids are the reason I’d be going to fight.
It’s easy to say that.

Where, on tor?
Yeah, I argue this shit online all the time, too. That’s why I listed “argue” in the things I’m able to do.
Arguing isn’t it.

So you want me to repost stuff?
