We are still in this together, but "this" is going to be real different in the very near future. This demands a different kind of "we."
The French Resistance during Nazi occupation played important roles delivering downed Allied airmen back to safety, supplying military intelligence, and acts of sabotage.
The Underground Railroad is estimated to have brought 100,000 freedom seekers to safety between 1810 and 1850.
It's time.
Rules
- Do not gatekeep resistance
- Do not organize specific subversive plans here.
- Do not identify yourself or anyone else here.
- Do brainstorm general ideas about how to support people who need it and stymie the efforts of fascists
- Do share thoughts on how to be personally prepared for subversive action

Will this have a huge impact? Almost certainly not. But Stephen King is always on the people's side. This isn't the first political post he's ever made.
Yeah, I agree. The only thing that matters is when things have huge impact. Change happens immediately and never in small increments. It's worthless to make people aware of how they can be part of the solution. That's just messing with hope.
Edit: Really should've added the /s
I made no implication that it had to have a huge impact.
