That is almost verbatim what I told myself leading up to 2016. And here we are.

Yeah. It's actually a really dangerous time.

Any organism faced with death will start to fight with everything in its power. Except this one is not a raccoon in the garage, it's a whole nationwide organization with billions of dollars, prisons, weaponized propaganda every person sees every day, and a whole network of detention centers just waiting to turn into concentration camps.

Oh I see. When I said it, it's because I thought that meant we were safe from this movement continuing to exist. But you're right, it's definitely more about being prepared for that death struggle

Agreed, yeah. "Probably gonna die" is not the same as "perfectly safe to be around in the meantime."
