But together we are strong, and by connecting them we might deliver ourselves from harm. Against the far right, we must secure a cleansing blow. There is no greater fight. The world is watching. To that end, I suggest a great and perilous fight. I see no other option in this remarkable century. Prepare as you might, I suggest pushups and resource acquisition. Deliver your resources somewhere safe if you're in a red area, and meet your neighbors if you're not. A blue city in a red state must survive a siege. Prepare yourself for this. Assume that supplies will need to be delivered by convoy if by land, and drone airdrop from the skies. Develop ways to protect these supply methods. Public spaces are our homes now, our houses are just where we sleep. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧╧════════════════════════════════════════════════════───────────────────────┘ --- #15 messages/1266 --- ═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════── It is not the duty of a king to assess loyalty.

Rural areas are so spread apart they pretty much can only do what herr Hitler suggests they do, meaning their command structure is monolithic. If everywhere needs their attention, they will falter unless they create a grand battleplan. And plans are defeated by rapid flexibility. The more effort they need to counter you, the more work your allies can get done. Every man woman and child who raised a fist will be remembered by the moments that gave us grace to move socialism along. We know what time it is, do you? Come to us now, flee from your new masters.
