 If fascists take over the nation, will you inform on your neighbors relatives and friends? 🤔 
 @3967703f A lot of people are doing that now, in hopes of advancing that take over. 
 @3967703f Sure I will, nobody wants to live with fascists who observe and check your lifetime. 
 @3967703f The thing that scares me most about this is I really think it's "when," not "if." 
 @3967703f My friends and I have been talking about how to protect each other, especially one friend who got citizenship recently. They talk about how that doesn’t seem like full proof protection if republicans gain control and it’s not difficult to them stripping citizenship from people. I don’t know if things will get that bad but it’s not impossible. 
 @3967703f 
From the relative safety of the present, I’ll swear that I’d never cooperate with the fascists. I’m also sure that many thoughtful Germans and Chilean folks said the same thing before their worlds went to hell. 
 @3967703f Eighteen months from now, the Tories will be gone.  We just need to hold on till then.
