If you don't call to action

I am going to get downvoted saying this, but credit where credit is due: Antifa and BLM mobilize and do something. Sure they have police and corporate support, but they do something.

Keep calling me a doomer. It's the literal state of affairs. Everyone needs to work out, meet people in the area, and get radios. You can have all the firepower in the world, but it means NOTHING with no plan and no organization.
Every Biden voter is in your face about who they voted for. 74+ million people voted for GEOTUS but a substantial portion of those voters don't even have the fortitude to admit that they pulled the lever for him in public - do you think those people are willing to step up?
We are at the trailing edge of effectiveness in organizing. The left is half a century ahead of us - they have networks, funds, PEOPLE and a common cause they all believe in. It's easy to dismiss this if you live in a red state and all of your neighbors have Trump flags. The NKVD operated openly. They calmly took people away. Nobody stood up against it. But when they calmly come for you, a network will be THE DIFFERENCE.
If this is life or death, you drop everything and commit to the cause. It doesn't manifest as, "oh yeah, let's go stand around on the weekend, wave some flags and chant a little bit, then go home so we can catch the sportsball game".
At a minimum, people need to be removed from office for dereliction of duty.
I hate when everyone calls out genuine criticism as being a "doomer"
Can't help it when we've been backstabbed for years and the perpetrators still get away with it.
If anyone dares to suggest forming a militia and taking it to the streets you're immediately called a glowie. I guess it's better to "trust the plan" while the country gets raped 24/7 by left-wingers and our corrupt officials rather than actually take action.
Please note, those are losers, with nothing to lose, who want chaos and violence and destruction, and are funded by cretins who will subsidize and organize this chaos and violence committed by others.
In huge contrast, conservatives, libertarians, liberty lovers of all stripes are, to a great extent, peaceable people, who value liberty, family, faith, responsibility, decency, honor, truth, hard work, rule of law and life. Most have jobs on whom others depend, families with whom they're closely connected, personal values that discourage law breaking and violence and harm to and control over othes. We have a lot to lose, and we don't relish or revel destruction.
To even suggest that there is some character flaw or failing in a people who are hesitant to commit mob violence and terrorism and assassinations and a climate of fear is to completely miss the fundamental basis of the righteousness of our beliefs. They cannot be separated. You are not wrong to be frustrated with what you noted - we are slow to anger, hesitant to hurt, disinclined to destroy... but when pushed too far, and left no other options, the Left better believe that we will leave them all fucking dead in the street.
I guess its becomming a matter of one side having no values to abandon in lieu of gaining nothing but power and privileges, while the other side having values and being hesitant to abandon them in lieu of gaining or retaining power.
Unfortunately, it is becomming a war, and to cling onto those values against an increasingly hostile opposition is a serious weakness. Morality and hesitation have no room in war.
I'm pissed but I'm well off. I have a comfy job that lets me work from home and read stories that just piss me off more to which I comment on them. I do write, call, and have even gone and spoken personally with my congressman and senator. I try to talk with my friends and neighbors but they have started mocking and joking with me thinking I'm the crazy one.
Honestly, I'm hoping that if all this falls apart my state can secede from the other states. I will push for that because war is honestly the last thing I want. I will fight for peace and what I have. I watched the Patriot with my son the other night and I could strongly relate to Benjamin Martin's character. He looked to be a coward by everyone including his family because he avoided war at all cost until war came to him. I don't think he was wrong for waiting as along as he could.

Exactly.

Definitely a bleak future for conservatives
They have impunity and immunity. We get our lives wrecked for defending ourselves. You don't have your first or second amendment in jail.
BLM is successful because of their violence and we get downvoted here for saying we should do something similar
I guess we are cuckservatives
it would be easy as fuck if I was allowed to be violent with no repercussion
Wouldn't it be nice if we had seemingly every institution in this country on our side?
Don't forget, our side has families. Who's gonna be sad when some antifa scum dies. Even their cats will be happy
All the more reason to fight the satanic pedophiles.
So you really want to do nothing when those people are after your kids? Not me.

All I need is a ride from my state to D.C. when the time comes. I've put out feelers. Hopefully I get a response soon.
This is a tldr version of "muh jobs n kids"
Thanks for your insight.
BTW you’re drooling. It’s sad.

If texit happened I would up and move from my northern territory to the new Republic.
