Oh yeah I already pulled a lever, but I pulled one many years ago by choosing to move to another country. And getting rid of my American citizenship (they charge taxes even if you don’t live there anymore).
This lever is now for Americans to pull.
That said, systemic assassination has been proven to be very effective at changing things in the past. Sometimes for the worst, sometimes for the better. That’s the gamble.
The issue is that such a tactic is really hard to pull off, because it needs to be focused more on those already in power rather than those who are power adjacent. Power adjacent people are best removed once power has been transferred.
Of course, this isn’t the only lever for people like you to pull. You can choose a peaceful option, like not paying taxes anymore, therefore not funding a fascist regime. Of course, regardless of your choice, the state will use some form of violence against you.
So no matter what, you’re choices are to risk your comfort, or to be complacent. Even something like leaving is sacrificing comfort. So, what will you choose, FlyingSquid? Or had you already chosen long ago, like I did?
I chose fleeing the country to save my daughter’s life. People tell me that makes me a coward for not being willing to sacrifice someone else’s life on my behalf.
I don’t think it is. I’ve lived there, and I get it. And if you’re not paying taxes to the US government, you’re technically doing more against them than probably 90% of Americans are.
Thank you. I wish other people got it because I’m really getting tired of being called a coward because I don’t want to risk my daughter being part of the queer genocide snowball that’s rolling down hill.
