Never give up. I'm old. Do you know how easy it would be for me to sit back and say I quit. Chances are I won't live long enough for it to get really bad. Reality is it's not about me. I'm a patriot. I was raised to salute the flag, that pledge of allegiance I made actually means something and that the united States of America is the greatest country on the planet. To sit back and let it fall goes against everything I believe in. My sweet little granddaughter at 10 years old is truly the most innocent loving person I have known in my lifetime. She is so inherently good she doesn't see evil in anyone or anything. She can and will find good in every situation. I cannot/will not let them destroy her and the other innocents like her. I will do whatever is necessary to take my country back! Stand up! Make the commitment! If our fore father's had given up we wouldn't have a country. NEVER back down. You are a patriot!

As much as we are against this corruption, it's possible eventually there's going to need to be a leader that is willing to water the tree of liberty. An organized movement. Only a matter of time when it comes to the communist china regime I think (they are the ones behind all the subversion currently going on). If that doesn't happen, there may be a few that finally say enough is enough on their own but will promptly be taken out by the military and law enforcement. Or if they are part of military and law enforcement will quickly be booted from service and booked.
Personally, I do not have the skill, experience, or wherewithal to be that person to lead in such a time, but if it doesn't happen soon enough before impending complete authoritarian domination, I'm out. Get while the getting is good. It's one thing to stay and fight if there's a chance, if there's a movement from within or that is large and resourceful enough, but it's foolish to commit suicide for zero gain and zero purpose. The founding fathers didn't have to fight against special ops, drone strikes, cyber warfare, fighter jets, and heavy anti-armor war machinery. At least live on for another day. Pass on your ideas elsewhere. Even if we are no longer in the United States, America will always be where ever we go, because it is an idea not a land. Write books and record information for future generations. The only thing I will absolutely refuse to budge one inch on is my faith in Jesus as savior, but that goes far beyond this life and I fear God much more than what a man can do to my body.
The rise of the evil regimes in Germany, North Korea, China, Soviet weren't the fault of the people that fled and escaped before it got really bad. Those people would've just been more deaths to add to the tally for those governments if they had stayed. And their uprisings if they tried any would've been flattened instantly.
I think there's still time before that. We have yet to see how things might go with a 3rd party, and election reform where ever possible. Perhaps there's still enough people power to take things back peacefully. There's the movements to secession (Texas becomes the new America). Maybe a leader willing to do what must be done will rise. I hear that china may not be doing so well on the inside. Maybe they'll collapse. Maybe the US will collapse before murderous tyranny starts showing its face, but that would be a whole host of other problems.
I say don't give up. But I also say making your escape isn't synonymous with giving up.
PS: Btw, sorry if this rains on the party a little, but I remember being 10 years old and with other 10 year olds. There's not one single 10 year old that is so perfect or inherently good. She probably acts it really well around grandpa. Middle schoolers can be brutal. Younger children do tend to be innocent, but no one is inherently good, especially by that age. You know how selfish and immature teenagers are, well 10 is before that. It takes a lot of self-knowledge and understanding to even make it a moderate habit to do right by others and not be a fool. That's why folks tend to be liberal when younger and conservative when older. Experience and wisdom. Also why our country is getting wrecked, because true philosophical wisdom wasn't passed down in most families.
