I know people are frozen. I guess what I hope people will realize is that there's not some fundamental difference between people who organize/protest/resist in an active and visible way and "regular folks." It's just the decision to take the risk that separates us.
A lot of people are frozen in their fear right now and do not know what to do, even though they are horrified by what's going on and may want to act. When you witness other people take to the streets and resist publicly, it can help thaw that freeze and provide a model for what is possible.

I'm trying not to be bitter. I want to make leftist spaces safer for everyone, including folks who are new to the movement and may not have had perfect politics in the past. But damn people need to wake up to who has been doing all this labor up until now!

Everything I've been finding is about how to see it coming, not how to fight it once you're already there 🫠
