One side of me says: "What's the use? They have control of the levers of power. We're screwed. They're nothing we can do. Let's throw in the towel."

The other side of me says: "Don't give up. The truth will come out. We'll find a way to combat this."

I'm willing to fight for rights of my countrymen and future generations, but HOW? Almost everything we have tried has failed in one way or another.

The American people either don't care, or are so brainwashed by the mainstream media, academia, the elites, that the situation is nearly hopeless.

How do you help a people who don't want to be helped, or would rather live under tyranny than in freedom?

Unfortunately, you don't!

You focus on helping yourself and your family and move on.

If you will not fight for freedom when you can easily win without bloodshed; if you will not fight when your victory will be sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves.. ~Winston Churchill...

Our side is still winning some battles. Many brave folks are standing up and in some cases winning. Our country just overturned roe vs wade, parents have been fighting crt and lgbtq indoctrination in schools and in some cases winning, pastors who have been wrongly arrested for preaching in public have won their cases, on and on it goes. Our,side is still very much a part of the “Restrainer” (ie the good- in the good vs evil). Without our side fighting and winning, pure evil would have already taken hold and America would be unrecognizable fro what it was founded to be.

While evil wins a lot, our side is still in the fight, and folks can help by supporting those who can fight on levels that we can’t (ie help store owners who have enough $$ to bring lawsuits, help councilmen who have shown that they will fight the evil in govenrment, etc, also by praying and helping to get word out about the evil that the left is engaged in so others eho dont follow news can know what is going on eho will th3n get more invovled hopefully etc etc etc.

While there isn’t a ton of hope, there is still a fairly good deal of hope, and a good deal of folks helping the cause of good vs evil in one way or another. Places like fr are helping get the word out, radio shows help, etc etc etc. Without any of it, evil would have taken over long ago because there would have been nothing to resist thrm

The main way to fight is economic.

Don’t buy stock that props up the awful NY and CA governments or new houses that are mainly being built by invaders.

Avoid buying from companies with high stock capitalizations if practical. Unfortunately, retailers like Walmart are hard to shun.

Totally avoid recreational travel and optional meals out.

Retire as soon as practical. Don’t grow your business needlessly.

In 1933 Jews were wise to flee Nazi Germany after selling their assets cheaply.

“but HOW? Almost everything we have tried has failed in one way or another.”

Maybe it’s time to try a tactic that has been proven time and time again to work very well, but that we haven’t actually bothered to try?

I’m talking about MASS CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE.

Closest thing we’ve seen to that recently was in Canada with the Freedom Convoy, which was quite effective, but as with any mass civil disobedience, the state responded harshly, so if we want to do this, we should be prepared for the same treatment.
