For me, it is more that I have a partner whom I love with every fiber of my being and a 5 yr old that is my whole universe. My family needs me.
It’s not so black and white as you make it. I work all the time to make sure we have money to barely get by.
I will say, if a “rebellion” starts and we actually have a working “army” I’d gladly be apart of it…
But just going out and starting shit? I’m sorry I can’t. I can spread the word, I can tell everyone about what’s going on and do my best to make sure the people in my town know what a monster he is.
Sometimes it feels like y’all think we Americans all live the same lives and have the same problems. That just not true. They have is hogtied and pinned down. How do I go and fight when fighting means my family will suffer?
That’s how I feel. I’ve got three small kids and a handicapped wife. Getting myself killed or arrested isn’t an option. When there’s a tipping point, I’ll be on the right side of it. If there’s a way to get to that tipping point faster, I’ll do that too. But sacrificing myself and my family just so I can tell some internet tough guys that political ideals were more important to me than my ethical ideals? That’s dumb.
