Brusque

A bidet. Once you’re comfy with it there is no going back.

Even suggesting REDACTED repulses the people who it would serve the most. Completely uninformed and lack of critical thinking.

hey, if you type in your pw, it will show as stars

********* see!

What about yours?

This thread is everything I needed to convince me to leave instead of fight.

Absolutely and agreed. We need people much more adept than me at conveying this information to the people that need to hear it.

I encourage you to not be so black and white by your definition of “fighting”. I consider most* forms of resistance as fighting, not just violent ones. We’ll take whatever we can get as far as that is concerned, but you can’t deny that it will ultimately take physical resistance as well. Some have the capacity for both.

If you don’t plan to help at all then yes, might as well stick your head in the sand. It doesn’t matter if you pay attention or not if you don’t offer any form of resistance. Indifference is the default response for a significant portion of Americans and it’s a huge part of the problem.

The deck is stacked against us, no doubt. But we can look to historical examples of what happens if you don’t fight Nazis coming into power, and I refuse to be one of those examples.

There really are only two pragmatic options at this point. Fight or leave. Anything else is a waste.
