Get up. Get out. Save yourselves. Start with your neighbors. Get off your butts and meet your neighbors. If they need help getting food or medicine or anything, help them. Of they need a job, help them find one. Yes. I'm saying go full on 100% Frank Capra "John Doe Club". Forgotten classic. The man knew what we needed to do even back then.
Shop locally. Yes, if your local McDonald's franchise (etc) is owned by someone who lives in your town, that counts too. Avoid big box stores, Amazon, etc if you can.
Work together with good people on your local elections and leaders. Run yourself if your town is filled with crooks. Get people who will fight for the Constitution in your city or town and county. Get people who will stand up to Washington.
Then focus on doing the same for your states. Work on making the federal government as meaningless to your lives as possible.
Make Your Own Neighborhood Great Again.
They stole our vote. They closed our churches. They closed our businesses. Today was the Boston Tea Party. Today was the Siege of the Bastille. This doesn't end today.
Ever play a board game with a five year old? They cheat. They change the rules mid game to make sure they win. A bad parent lets their kid get away with cheating so their kid feels good about winning. A responsible parent calls out the cheating and hope the child learns a lesson.
We're calling out your side for cheating like a five year old and your lot are having a hissy because we actually expect you to grow up to be responsible adults.
You can name call and deflect all you like. You're still a child who cheated at a board game and can't accept that you aren't getting away with it.
70 million of us ignoring your hissy fit and are finishing the game by the rules. And we're going to win.
Grow up.
