In 'trying to survive' by staying silent people will ultimately aid the regime which, as is evidenced across your country, has a limitless capacity for all things evil. I respectfully point out I did not make my point blithely. Whereas you are correct I 'won't face consequences' on foot of my 1/
comment I'm personally familiar with placing ones' life in danger to abide by ones' beliefs. Ultimately a person has to choose what they can live with and their conscience dictates 🤷♀️ I believe there are more good than bad Americans and your democracy can be restored if people do the right thing.
Nor did I make my comment out of ignorance; I've attempted to get others to fight -- Americans aren't ready because it hasn't negatively affected them yet. I've known what's coming for 25 years and mentally prepared myself for the inevitable. Most haven't.
I don't want all this to be true, but it is. We have a saying here "Wish in one hand, shit in the other and see which fills up first". One cannot simply will a rebellion, especially when most are still having their needs met. Don't assume, but listen. Trust me, you'll be better informed.
