Will we go quietly into the night?
American Thinker ^

Posted on 12/21/2020 4:56:39 AM PST by Java4Jay

We’re told to stand strong, hold the line, and fight for Trump. And we want to. Desperately. But what does that mean in actuality? Many of us don’t know what to do. This isn’t about pre-Election Day rallies or volunteering for the Trump campaign. We’re in dark and dangerous waters barreling toward an illegitimate presidency littered with Marxists.

Where are leaders and organizers to help us stand strong, hold the line, and fight for Trump? And how does information get shared so we can organize in this climate of censored (conservative) speech?

“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family?

Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?...

The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin’s thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...
We didn’t love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.”

Aleksandr I. Solzhenitsyn , The Gulag Archipelago 1918–1956

I get chills when ever I think of this movie scene.

I haven't surrendered, although some here have.

Yeah I think quite a few here have surrendered. Gotta wonder why they keep hanging around a place called Free Republic.

The difference being that we are not limited to “axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else” is at hand...

There is also a new crop of trolls who have appeared who the mods seem disinclined to do anything about. I have filed complaints and nothing happened

Written my Senators. I am looking around for things to do. What about volunteering to work on the voter rolls?

This nation is not the responsibility of Donald Trump. It is ours, we the people. If we are to be saved from the scourge of socialism we must do the saving.

Jan 6 may not be the date we rescue our nation from the cloying talons of Marxism. That day may come much later when we are in the desperate throes of deep and terrible tyranny.

The day will come when we will not sit idly by and complain while watching. The day will come when we take up whatever arms are available and fight with our blood for the freedom of our land. That day may not be now.

We may still be hoping for a hero. We have not yet realized we must be our own hero if we are to survive as a free people.

That’s more than most but sadly will make no difference.

“Imagine, if you will, a bunch of Antifa snowflakes and BLM inner city punks coming out here and fighting with millions of people -many of us military age veterans, who eagerly sit out in the cold, in a tree, for hours, just waiting to kill something?”

“we had no awareness of the real situation....”

~~~

That’s almost everyone.
They don’t want awareness either. They are completely dismissive and defensive.

And I have to admit, I like I think I am more informed than average person, but it’s very hard to make the leap to the bolshevik revolution or the atrocities of lenin & stalin. It’s so easy to say that this is all just another political transition of power/leadership, and to ignore all the signs and symptoms that there is something very powerful hiding behind some curtains somewhere, which is probably a bad metaphor because oz was a fraud, and that is the exact opposite of my point. If this whole “transition of leadership” goes south fast, those who have worked so hard to stay hidden wont be able to anymore. At least not in their deeds.

Behind every tree; around every corner; in every vacation spot: democrat politicians will live in fear, along with their wealthy supporters.

Step two if necessary: food, fuel, electricity and water will be cut off from the cities. And oh yes, all toilet paper will be withheld as well. Cities depend on truckers and they will just say no.

We can’t look to distant “leaders” for guidance.

Relying upon treasonous “others” is what brought us to this nationwide crisis.

TRUST NO ONE in authority. They are all controlled by fear.

Trust only in GOD.

WE are the rebellion. WE are the Sons of Liberty.

No battle plan survives the first engagement with the enemy.

We ALL have to be TOUGH, SMART and committed to a VOW: “NO SURRENDER TO COMMUNISTS !”

We must prepare to feed, clothe and equip ourselves for a lengthy fight.

Truth is, beside calling/writing your reps and senators, there is little else one can do. We are praying and hoping for a positive development that would turn this around.

Pisses me off that my vote has been nullified by fraud in other states. Pisses me off the likes of McConnell, Christie, Rove, Romney are out there running their mouths.

Equally torques me all the obscure websites and no name talking heads out on the net, some of which end up here on FR, talking all kinds of theories and angles on how Trump is going to win. Spouting all sorts of nonsense, supposed evidence and such.

Click on the source and it’s some male or female jerk-off with a webcam sitting in their bedroom creating a video of themselves parroting stuff they themselves listened to out on some of these obscure sites.

What would happen if 74 million decided not file a tax return in 2021?

Where do you get your information. I’m ready to join up. But I see none of what you speak of.
