    It’s getting to the point where I don’t think dicking around on internet forums is good enough. Every time trump repeat the phrase “51st state” it gets a little more serious. We need to start organizing irl like, yesterday.

      I hate how vague that always is. Specific ideas: Join the military, annoy your MP, volunteer for a political party. If it’s America that we’re worried about none of the edgelord stuff applies anyway.

        I’m thinking more along the lines of we might not be able to trust our government (and therefore military) to do the right thing, independent of who wins the election.

        It would be wise to put together some type of organization (reserve militia?) to be prepared for that contingency.

          Riiight, because that’s easier, and can be trusted more than the democratically controlled military we already have. I’m sorry, that’s one of the edgelord things I was talking about.
