    Just in case any Americans need to hear it:

    You may not necessarily want to donate to this fundraiser, depending on your future plans. You will almost certainly face increased monitoring after donating and you may want to remain low-profile in a fascist US.

      Fuck that noise. We need to stand up to tyranny. They need to know that we won’t just sit back while they steal our liberties. Go hide if you want.

        I was moreso referring to people who either plan to be able to flee the country or who plan on doing some “legal-if-jury-nullification” actions themselves.

        After all, none of the small German resistance during the nazi era would’ve been able to do anything had their identities been known to the regime. The same applies to guerilla warfare against far more powerful enemies. Remaining low profile allows for dealing the most damage possible.

        Being loud and public only works for democracies, not for fascist dictatorships.
