Nearly a third of Americans – 30% – say people may have to resort to violence in order to get the country back on track, according to the latest PBS News/NPR/Marist poll.

It’s a sharp rise from 18 months ago, when 19% of Americans said the same.

Perhaps this is why trump just declared war on nonprofits. They could potentially pull together resources to keep people fed during a coordinated nationwide strike.

They in general exist to tackle goals directly opposed to fascist regimes, so it males sense to target them.

Education, social justice, feeding the hungry, and protecting nature are all examples of goals Trump's regime are staunchly against.

    That's why mutual aid organizations are essential. They operate outside of the legal system, so can't be directly targeted as easily. If you or anyone else reading this have the time, please consider joining your local mutual aid group. That could be Food Not Bombs, a different group local to your city or town, or even your local church if you're in a rural area.

    If you don't have one in your area, start one! Here's a little guide on how and where to find likeminded folk to start one with: https://infosec.exchange/@tinker/113589807117870451
