    Yep. I would surely die. I get that. But I’m not having my home invaded without fighting back. And the life insurance, cremation, etc., is already planned.

    You plan to lie down when the fascists come knocking? Meekly go on the train? Because we’re there. That’s your choice.

      No, we just choose plans of action that don’t amount to suicide and may actually change things…

      Adding your body to the pile isn’t helping or changing anything. There are much smarter choices you could be making instead. I don’t see how how living to see another day is any more “meek” than willingly jumping under the boot and dying fruitlessly because you somehow think it’s the only way to fight back.
