The one thing that is apparent is that Ruth would want us to get busy. And busy we must get.
Make sure you are doing what you can do. Prepare to vote. Wear plain clothes when going to vote. No Dem t-shirts, no visible signs no clue as to who you are voting for.

I’m serious. When you go to vote. Don’t wear BLM t-shirts, or resistance t-shirts or Biden t-shirts. You know there are people that cause issues at polling stations. Be plain and be smart.

Do not give them the satisfaction of intimidation.
And vote early if you can.

“Monsters exist, but they are far too few in number to be truly dangerous; the most dangerous monsters are ordinary [men and women] ready to believe and obey without asking questions.”
Primo Levi, The Truce

Is a peaceful and prosperous society dependent on strict obedience to
the laws and dictates of the state? Is voting the only proper means to show displeasure with the commands of politicians and bureaucrats? Whilst mainstream media try to indoctrinate us with an obedient mindset and while politicians desire an almost blind obedience from the
populace, history tells a different story about the value of always doing what we are told. Obedience, not disobedience, is the greatest threat to humankind. Civil disobedience keeps a society free.

So. What am I doing right now?
I am reflecting and I am researching.
What I am not doing is being reflexive. I’m not raging. I am not replying to Trump, or MAGA, of Republicans.
Oh how they like that. It gives them the chance to be smug.
There are two and a half months to
prepare. We have to understand ALL of the possible outcomes and how each of the outcomes affect us.
We have to organise. Not with anger. Not with trolling and attacking.
This should be a time when we say “We are Done.”
We are done trying to explain.
We are done replying to
those that do not deserve our time.
THEY DO NOT DESERVE OUR TIME!
Stop giving them oxygen. For crying out loud. Just stop.
No more excuses. No more expecting people to do the moral thing. Many Americans are cruel. Are hateful. Are bigoted.
Yet, they are quintessentially

Thread 🧵

If we agree that governments do not change what is right and wrong when they change the law, and we agree that governments who do wrong are acting outside of their legitimate powers, then we must agree that government power has limits

Legitimate government is limited
There can be no other way.

Any government that has no limits is not legitimate and certainly cannot claim to be representative of “Freedoms of the People.”
We the people however, can indeed limit the power of a government by limiting our obedience to it.
Specifically, to limit our obedience to only the areas where the government is legitimate, and to disobey when and where the government exceeds its legitimate authority.

In fact, if you look at history, all throughout history, the only thing that has ever actually limited

Yes. The Resistance will continue.

If however, you think it can just run as normal you are mistaken.

If you believe replying to Trump, MTG, MAGA and the like with angry, raging replies, then we cannot move forward.

As an account who helped start this movement, I hope you
at least listen to me. Then of course you can ignore me. That is your choice.
The last eight years have had a huge impact on people. Engaging hatred on a daily basis has been traumatising.
Our mission going forward is to help people. Because many people will be targeted. It is
our responsibility to protect them and ourselves.
The circus is going to be the biggest chaotic circus. The hateful are going to become more hateful. They love you replying to them because it gives them the ability to hate on you, and laugh about it at the same time. Cut them

Concentrate on community support.

Not

Government support.

We are going to need to rally around each other.

Leave as much of the chaos to the chaos agents you can.

Do not engage Trump. Do not engage MAGA.

Do not reply to Republicans.

I am being really serious.

We
are the only ones who are going to protect each other.

No one is coming to save us. We have to save ourselves. Whilst maintaining our mental health.

There are people that are going to get worse.

We have to do better.

Don’t buy into the media. Cancel News subscriptions
Cancel cable News.

Use your money for little power you have.

Many small outlets of power is powerful.

Don’t buy into the fuzziness and flowery language.

It’s going to be a shit show. And we have been left to our own devices.

When they do something terrible. Don’t reply

Go out and buy yourself a new wardrobe. One that is classic, well made and will last. Buy a bunch of books.

I know we have said all of this before. But let’s stop just saying words. Let us show who we are by “doing.”

Do this in the next two months. Do it before January.
After January. DO NOT buy non-essentials. Live simply. Live minimally. I’m not talking about making yourself uncomfortable. We want to be comfortable in our tiny space with made in the world. Our little sanity sanctuary. If you must have a streaming service. Stick to one. Stop
convenience click shopping with people like Amazon. Make the effort to go out locally. If you can. I know that for some, this isn’t always possible.

I am really serious with this thread. Corporations don’t want to pay taxes, so don’t give them your money. I’m talking about
