No, but how about working on collaboration and solutions in the community instead of ballyhooing the negative state of affairs we’re facing? Complaining about the bitter end will only lead to a bitter end.

I would rather look at solutions for galvanizing my community against this sort of oppression than to be the next Chicken Little on a street corner with a sign reading “The end is nigh.” It might be, but that doesn’t mean we can’t go down fighting.

That's exactly what I've done. Plans. Neighbors.

If you have to "galvanize" a community, then it's not a community.

The reason I spout all the negativity that you dislike on these threads is to people who post nonsense about "spontaneous rebellion" that's "just around the corner" when the oppressors "finally step too far."

Those are exactly the people who COULD help us if they prepared now, but are in fact the very people the oppressors are counting on to sit back and wait till it's too late.

That's why I hold the chicken little sign now.
