Pull your money from the stock market. Park it in gold or other inflation resistant assets.

Boycott the economy in general. Think what did your grandparents or great grand parents do during the Great Depression. Buy from thrift shops or make do. Do not buy consume more than you need to. Stop taking trips or other extravagances.

Obstruct the agenda at every level attend rally’s and town halls. Become politically active. Buy a burner phone and only use that it for those activities. Put it in a faraday bag when not in use, never use it in and around your home.

Stock up on guns bought from independent parties. Buy your ammo with cash. Learn to use your weapon find groups of like minded people and team up with them.

Get woke and be proud of it. Take back the power of the term. Honestly not even the left does that so I don't expect anyone to actually do that. But isn't it ridiculous to bully people over that? "Oohh you accept other people's differences?? WOKE!!" Uhh thanks?

I miss the minutes when this term was just used unironically and hadn’t yet become a magat slur.

[-] Salvia@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

It really was like 2 minutes wasn't it? 🙃

50+ European here. Could you please explain in simple terms what "woke" is? I've seen it for years now and still don't have any idea.

In my mind it's a lumberjack shirted 30yo with a trimmed full beard and tattoos working as a barista. That's how little I know of it... Sorry!

It started off as being aware of systemic social issues, for example how racism isnt just "well gee I dont like black folks", but is ingrained in society in all kinds of ways - for example, if you're black you're more likely to be pulled over while driving, stuff like that. Conservatives didn't like or understand that because they thought "I have nothing against black folk so I can't be racist!" While not understanding that it goes deeper than that.

Then it turned into woke means anything that conservatives dont like. Many of them can't define it beyond that.

No one really knows. When asked to define it, people on the right have no concrete idea. It's just a word that they use to symbolize everything they don't like.

  1. Joining and organizing within your local community to create connections with others is incredibly powerful, will lay the groundwork for effective resistance.
  2. We can effect things drastically with a general strike. This can massively impact their income streams, and can bring a government to its knees if done on a large enough scale.
  3. Join the IWW and attempt to unionize your workplace, so that the general strike is even more effective.

If we put in the work, we can resist this and we can win. Join up with allies while we still can easily!

Organize. Do it in secret. Be careful. But also you need to be meeting violence with violence.

Be sure to visit the privacy communities for tips on how to keep said secrets.

The problem is that liberals only know how to punch left.

[-] scarabic@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

Show zero tolerance for others speaking in favor of it. You don’t have to win every argument. You have to let them know that their “political beliefs” are fighting words and they’re going to get a fight whenever they try to speak them.

[-] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 4 months ago

Get to a protest.

[-] aubeynarf@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 4 months ago

Connect people back to value systems instead of aggressively debating specific issues.

For example, when we think about Jesus Christ’s teachings, why are we erasing the nation’s historical decision to help the poor, sick, and hungry - an action executed by the most greedy, vain, and boastful people on earth?

[-] FriendOfDeSoto@startrek.website 1 points 4 months ago

I think for answering that question we would need a baseline to compare with.

Lacking that, with kindness and empathy in conversations. And with resoluteness in the face of injustice.

[-] dumbass@leminal.space 1 points 4 months ago

And if that doesn't work, use a flamethrower. That always gets your point across.

“You know, it occurs to me that the best way you hurt rich people is by turning them into poor people.”
