At some point people are going to start having to risk their comfortable lives to resist
Being trapped by a job does not sound like a life of comfort. Leaving my job would mean being flat broke in two weeks and then starving. If you work paycheck to paycheck, you literally cannot afford to risk your lifestyle to resist.
It's possible to organize with people that have the means to help those dedicated to the cause, you don't have to just give up everything and be alone.
I would love to have access to such an organization. Unfortunately, they don't advertise, if they exist, and I'm too poor to found one.
I really don't think Americans will be taking up arms against this, certainly not en masse.
Massed armies in the street aren't how you beat superpowers.
Only takes 1% or so if they are coordinated
Yeaah that would get out of their comfort szone
The germans didn't, the allies had to fight their way across europe
Yup.
Start buying firearms and ammo and training now.
You don't want to be behind the curve when it starts.
I'd recommend checking out BlackFlag Civilian's videos. He's a leftist who covers relevant topics, including how to select ammo, how to set up comms on a budget, and more.
I'd also suggest TacticoolGirlfriend (who has a great beginner series) and InRangeTV's videos.
