This is a point Steve Bannon has brought up a few times recently, and it's been on my mind a lot. Our opponents plan for the worst, and they do so ruthlessly. It's how they were able to be an ever-present thorn in Trump's side all throughout his presidency. They didn't believe Hillary would lose, but just in case, they had muh Russia waiting.
This time they overwhelmed our election with illegal activity on many fronts. They didn't think we'd come out in the numbers we did, but when that happened, once again... they'd planned for it. They had the extra ballots standing by. They stopped the counting everywhere they needed to and they fucked us. And they're utilizing the exact same tactics for the January runoff.
Right now, we're left hoping either Trump acts on a massive executive order, a court case breaks the dam, or our legislators at the last possible second come through with the courage we've been begging them for since the day after the election.
What do we do if none of our hopes materialize? What's OUR plan? We're not like our opponents. We're not going to run out and begin engaging in random acts of violence until we get what we want. We're not going to destroy our cities, towns, and neighborhoods. So what do we do? You can say "trust in Trump" all you want, but that's not good enough. The worst of our opponents are beyond delusional in their beliefs and worldviews, but they prepare for the worst. And when the worst happens, they implement their contingency strategies without hesitation.
I do trust. I do have faith. I believe Donald Trump will remain president. But I'm also humble enough to know that I don't know everything. Trump could have a plan in place he thinks is rock solid and then get betrayed at the last second by a key player. So I'm not willing to act like I know more than I do. I have my beliefs, but I could be wrong. And if I am, I don't want to be here on January 20th hanging my head in sorrow wondering what the fuck the next move is because I refused to acknowledge and plan for the possibility of the worst coming to pass.
So, here I am, pedes. With firm resolve and an iron will. What will we do if things don't go the way we want them to? What's OUR plan? Are we not entitled to one? The globalists have their plan. The leftists have their plan. BLM and Antifa have their plans. Can we not talk amongst ourselves and be our own safety net? So that if the politicians fail us or if Trump's help fails him, we at least don't fail each other. I know it's not the conversation anyone wants to have, but we need to confront the fact that there are aspects of reality we can't control. Thank God, however, we can control ourselves.
I don't have all the answers. All I know right now is that we need to be able to trust in what we've built here. This community is full of smart people who love their country and who refuse to roll over and die. No glowie shit. Be practical. What can we do that will be effective without violence and destruction? Not after a few weeks of news stories heralding Biden's inauguration. Not after our shock has worn off and we've had time to sit around bitching. On day fucking one. How do we make a statement and continue to push until things are set straight?

I'm certainly hopeful about the fact that we have a few different paths to victory still open. I have faith that at least one of them will pan out. However, if the GOP doesn't show up for us and nothing else works out, what then? What if it turns out to be, like you said, that the Republic is actually dead? How do we proceed as citizens who wish to restore our Republic?
If you start talking about what needs to be done you get called glowie, FBI agent and doomer. The fact we are scared of the people who are suppose to prevent shit like this from happening is a HUGE problem. The nation is done if this is allowed to stand.
I don't think we're scared as much as we just realize where we are. If you're on the internet, you might as well be sitting next to an FBI agent. Any planning we do has to be a bit more creative than Antifa/BLM tactics. I don't think that should be a problem for us. We're better than they are. We can fight without engaging in blunt force destruction.
There are many ways to disrupt a plot without harming anyone physically. That might end up being our task of tasks.
This has also been on my mind, and you explain it well. Think about the non violent movements of the past. From as little as bra burning by feminists, anti-war sit-ins, the civil rights marches, the Boston Tea Party. We need to shut this country down if all avenues fail and the CCP take over. I will not lift one finger or give one dollar to support the communist overthrow of the USA. We are the backbone of America and we can stop them if we all stand together and grind this nation to a halt. That’s all I have come up with at this point. I appreciate you bringing up this issue, Pede.
You answered your own questions already. It's the things that can't be discussed here. Voting is an agreement to solve issues at the ballot box in lieu of traditional violence. If they steal your vote then you're not left with recourse and have casus belli.
I'm not convinced there aren't other steps that can be taken before violence is the only option left. I haven't even seen an attempt at the discussion yet.
