    As long as you’re alive, you have options. And the majority of them are usually better than just giving up and dying, either by a civil war or under the occupation forces.

    The only thing not clear is the timing. How close is the shit from the fan at any particular moment?

      So are you advocating for action or “not playing” (ie rolling over)? Make up your mind.

        Personally, I’m a big fan of leaving. When shooting, or barbed wires are imminent, just pack your family, some essentials and go have a long boring life somewhere else.

          Again - not an option for the majority of people. Not only does that require significant amounts of money, it also assumes the place you’re going is accessible (eg open borders, etc) You’re advocating from a position of privilege and/or ignorance of you think “just leave” is a reasonable suggestion.
