And once your there, will they grab your hands and use them to make sandwiches or type code or whatever you do for a living? It’s much easier to deny living space than compel action.

I guess I’ve been on an involuntary consumption strike for the last 10 years or so then lol
You strike and just keep striking, they cant take you.out of your home if you have a gun…

They can take you out– that’s for sure.

Mutual aid is probably the best we could do in the short term
