4th of July Meme Thread: the Resistance Edition
I've shared this meme a lot over time and one thing that people need to understand about right now is that the "usual people" who stand up in opposition is *not sufficient* — you don't get to panel 4 until EVERYONE stands (at least 80%). That means people who've been silent need to fucking step up.

Personne"There will be times when the struggle seems impossible. I know this already. Alone, unsure, dwarfed by the scale of the enemy.
Remember this, Freedom is a pure idea. It occurs spontaneously and without instruction. Random acts of insurrection are occurring constantly throughout the galaxy. There are whole armies, battalions that have no idea that they’ve already enlisted in the cause.
Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
And remember this: the Imperial need for control is so desperate because it is so unnatural. Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear.
Remember that. And know this, the day will come when all these skirmishes and battles, these moments of defiance will have flooded the banks of the Empires’s authority and then there will be one too many. One single thing will break the siege.
Remember this: Try."

Spread The Truth@susankayequinn thank you for that! Helps when you feel totally helpless
@spreadthetruth I struggle with that helpless feeling too and it helps to remember that the powerful want *all of us* to think that because we *vastly* outnumber them and they literally can't do anything without our compliance. Any time you're not giving it to them, any time you working to pull a thread, they freak right out. This is good. Keep going.
