The biggest issue for people who are willing to use violence for political means is not knowing whether their actions would be supported by others. One of the things that the right has done better than the left is organization. Progressives don’t have natural communities like a church.
It’s why I keep stressing to people who want to resist to volunteer and get involved locally. Volunteer at a food bank. Get involved with the local immigration assistance group. Do something to get yourself known to those in vulnerable communities because that is where you’ll find people who are supportive and where you’ll find people who might even feel the same way as you.
