Little late to the party there, Tucker.

What can I do? In the face of the coming storm, what constructive actions can we take to conserve what works and protect ourselves? Here are a few actionable solutions anyone can adopt at a personal or local level.

Find your tribe. Network, meet in person. Social media can’t censor what you say in private. This also helps you emotionally, since you’re meeting with people who support you instead of mistaking the digital lynch mobs for what matters.

Preserve conservative institutions like churches, schools and clubs. Fight social justice infiltration or pressure to submit to liberal political demands like, “you really need a BLM lecturer in here, you’ll be good if you throw up our political symbols”.
Educate. Teach your kids your values at an early age, by reading stories that share your values. Don’t let the kids go to drag queen story time or social justice story time. Protest if the school or daycare does this, or if you’re not able to do that, take your kid out and discuss the protest with other parents. Abilene Paradox – people wrongly think that the official dictate is what everyone agrees with because no one says anything against it.

Buy books that explain the conservative worldview and defend it like those by Dennis Prager. Buy books that explain why liberals and conservatives are different without demonizing them like Jonathan Haidt’s works. And start book clubs reading these books. Hello, tribe!

Fight any attempt to add social justice to codes of conduct. For example, the National Association of Realtors just implemented a policy where you can be fined or expelled for “hate speech”, public or private. Other organizations have weaker versions of this, but expect it to ramp up.

Law, medicine and social work already have rules regarding this, equating trust and respect and empathy to liberal values - so you can’t get licensed if you don’t agree. Fight this, if you don’t want to be kicked out of professional organizations if you don’t pass the liberal political litmus test.

Hire conservatives, because businesses are firing them. Assist those who have been fired for their beliefs.

2ndvote.com allows you to find conservative and neutral businesses that share your values.
You can even sort by category (restaurants, groceries, hardware, retail) or values (pro-life, 2nd amendment).

Do you like the local or national conservative talk show hosts? Buy the stuff they’re hawking, and especially use the reference or discount codes they provide. This will tell sponsors that this sponsorship is financially important to them. And that helps keep these shows on the air.

Clean your room. Sort yourself out. You can’t fix the world, but you can improve your own life and situation. Read Dave Ramsey’s Financial Peace University books. Get out of debt. Save up an emergency fund. If Biden’s cronies crash the economy, you’re in a much better situation. And you’re in a Christian group that can be the start of your tribe, or you can arrange classes at your church or with your networking groups to bring everyone closer together.

Encourage Sanctuary Cities/Sanctuary States on any issue you support. Second Amendment sanctuaries already exist. Pro-life Sanctuaries are far fewer but could spread. Support the groups that got these policies passed, and encourage such movements in your area. You may not be able to change federal tax and immigration policy, but you can try to preserve free speech if someone can implement a First Amendment Sanctuary law at a state level.

There will be many dead bodies and no taxes being paid if they go for broke. It will be very, very bad if these demonrats begin rewriting the Constitution.
At least 55% or more of the population will NOT comply.

The new left always overplays its hand. Always. A backlash is coming.

Apple appears to be doing the right thing here. I don’t believe they will remove Parler from their online sales.

Google is a different story. Get rid of your Android devices.

It's happening right before our eyes.

And with the approval of at least half the country, virtually all of the media, a majority of both houses of Congress, the judiciary, and the Supreme Court.

Doesn’t seem to be many options left except to get into that proverbial cattlecar or resist with might!

Good—The Goal of Terrorism is to simulate massive crackdowns that will hurt the whole mass of the public and drive recruitment into the ranks of the rebellion—Just as the Federalists crackdown on rival newspapers caused the public to turn from the Party of Washington to the party of Jefferson—That led to the election of 1800 that changed everything. So to this will cause one of two things. With out the hated Trump to unify them the Democrats will fall apart—remember what they did to Bernie? and they will lose big in 2022—or another fixed election will spark a new Civil War.

Yes. There are way too many who only want to look noble and virtuous. They berate others for 1) not doing the same and 2) slow down taking the necessary action in time.

2) really bothers me. It is one thing to have their own opinion. But getting in the way of others who want to take action is quote another.

They take a lot of blame for getting us in this mess.
At the same time, our fault is that we didn’t ignore them sooner.

That works for China.

Which is the long game, grown much shorter.
