    Serious question, what would you do if you were in America? Call your buddies and organize a march? Start offing people by yourself? Stand on a street corner with a sign? Donate money to a contradicting politician?

    This game plan is enacted by design, it’s what makes fascist regime takeovers work, what makes it difficult to organize and resist. You have a husband, kids, a mortgage, a job, car payments, need to put food on the table.
