Hell yes, and then you're a comrade who can feed people. That's an invaluable asset to the movement, and whatever it will grow into during that time. We are trained to be docile, the fascists are trained to fantasize about killing all day long. We are surpressed, they are enabled. When shit hits the fan, the Left will be vitalized, there will be no choice, it will even be reactionary in many ways. We are meant to be the cadres that ensure the revolution is MList in nature, and that our friends and family survive. I do not think we will be able to exploit any momentum effectively until the federal gov't starts seriously waning, and yes the fascists will have all the prep, the initiative. We're gonna take an uppercut in the opening scenes. It's okay. We will wipe the blood off our face and get up and try over and over until we get it right.
