      I mean it’s a quote of a fact.

      You can’t reason with anyone while under attack, but also the brain just don’t work as well in conflict/survival mode. This is a strategy they’ve been planning for decades, and started putting into action years in advance.

      They are backing us into a corner bc they are trying to instigate violence to proceed with the next part of their plan.

      It might be inevitable, but if you’re looking at violence/conflict as a resolution while knowing it’s part of their plan, you need your own plan and strategy in place to know where you go from there.

      What happens once a civil war is kicked off? Their plan is to declare an emergency/martial law and use the military, federal, and state law enforcement and all their weapons and resources against their own civilians in order to crush dissent. Once that happens they already have their new government in place ready to take over on day one, bc a coup was the plan all along.

      We need a strategy in place to defend. Force without any strategy or planning behind it is still just reasoning with the lion while your head is in its mouth.

        I’m not disagreeing with the quote or anything, I’m a revolutionary communist who participated in civil disobedience in pro-palestine demonstrations (I’ll be there in Madrid this very evening to push for a general strike against genocide). I just find it ironic to quote Churchill of all.

        We don’t just need a strategy, we also need leaders.

        It’s difficult though. Like you said, they’ve been planning this for a long time. They control so much that resistance is hard to put together and organize.

        That said, at the end of the day if it comes to it I would much rather flail about and resist than give in without a fight.
