Several congressmen say they don't want to "override our democracy" (how ironic), but maybe if we up the ante a little bit, and several senators and congressmen know their job won't exist in a few days if they sell out, it might change attitudes a little bit.

No. Not at all.

The most powerful military in the world belongs to we the people, not Joe Biden. I will not surrender that to him.

The land our forefathers died to manifest the destiny of all 50 states belongs to we the people. I will not secede and surrender that.

The civil rights of Americans in blue states, liberals and conservatives alike, are god given, and protected by the constitution. Me, and several other Americans pledged our sacred honor to protect the liberties of all Americans, from foriegn and domestic.

Allowing the CCP to hold a single US state is a compromise of the future of all humanity. We the people hold the reigns of destiny.

Don't get me wrong, I think it's better to have 50 free states, than 50 separated ones. But if they keep taking away our liberties, and keep cheating to do it, then this is just not going to work.

My argument is that our objective is to retain all 50 states, and not walk with what we can carry. It’s an all of nothing situation IMO.

Read up on our revolutionary war. We were incredibly disorganized from the onset. There was barely any discernible leadership. Continental Congress was just as useless and feckless as our current Congress.

Every battle win was followed by many more losses. At dozens of points, the struggle seemed futile. The enemy was the strongest force on the face of the planet.

The patriots who persevered were untrained, low morale, barely equipped.

Our ability to organize will manifest out of necessity. Not to be cliche, but it there’s a will, there’s a way. I’d say the only way is to have strong enough will. If there’s no will though, there’s no way.

The French didn’t step in until way later. The continental army made up a small portion of the total forces. Most were just drunks recruited from the local bars.

American gun owners have better weaponry than the Taliban does. They’re still doing pretty good against the US.

Americans have an avg IQ 15 points higher than than the average Afghani.

Americans have WAY more ammo, food, and resources than the Taliban.

Vietnam, same story. VC were outnumbered and outmatched, still ended up winning with sheer force of will.

If you don’t have the stomach for it, or don’t believe in it’s chances, that’s fine. Several of us do believe in ourselves and the worthiness of the cause. I don’t think convincing fellow pedes that we can’t do anything about the end of the constitution doesn’t work in anyone’s favor.
