Welcome to politcal memes!
These are our rules:
1) Be civil
Jokes are okay, but don’t intentionally harass or disturb any member of our community. Sexism, racism and bigotry are not allowed. Good faith argumentation only. No posts discouraging people to vote or shaming people for voting.
2) No misinformation
Don’t post any intentional misinformation. When asked by mods, provide sources for any claims you make.
3) Posts should be memes
Random pictures do not qualify as memes. Relevance to politics is required.
4) No bots, spam or self-promotion
Follow instance rules, ask for your bot to be allowed on this community.
5) No AI generated content.
Content posted must not be created by AI with the intent to mimic the style of existing images

So what kind of community resistance are you doing? Are you hiring or just bull shitting
'Hiring' in what sense? You can 'hire' yourself and start if you're sympathetic and not already engaged. You don't even have to like or agree with the 'gun part' if you don't find yourself so inclined.
Knowing your neighbors and disaster prep is a good square one.
If you'd like to get involved in in your area, I'd suggest mutual aid networks, rapid response, and harm reduction groups. If you're looking for relevant skill building SRA, Stop the Bleed/First Aid trainings, and Meshtastic communities are also useful.
You'll find many of the same people are engaged in political actions, counter-protests, ICE watch, and labor organization. Helping organize responses, protests, and labor activity is a natural extension of building a broader community structure and helps connect the dots. When something like the Minnesota resistance to Metro Surge flares up, these sorts of networks are there to funnel the people's energies into productive activity.
