The war isn't just a war of bullets.

It's a war of words, of propaganda, of networks and of communications.

And ANTIFA and the left are far ahead of them on all these fronts.

agreed

Fighting alone is a recipe for disaster.

The communists met in total secrecy for more than a half century before re-emerging recently.

well, im often the one just off in the corner doing my own thing, so unfortunately when the big one happens, ill likely be caught on my own no matter what way i slice it

I think that's the majority of people.

That's been me traditionally.

just started tryign to get myself prepped

I'm trying to change it.

And convince others to network more.

hoping i can be ready in time for if it happens

@TylerC agreed.

And I don't want to have to become a "resistance" to a tyrannnical semi-communist regime.

Same.

hell probably earlier than that if im honest

Really the 60s.

ya, back as early as the first censorship stuff

i remember the cartoon mob back in those days

Alot of the social justice and weird multicultural globalism stuff I think is a direct result of the culture war in the 90s.
