\n\nHicks showing up to repel antifa isn\u2019t a joke. \u201cIn the face of urban insurrection, increasing numbers of irregular troops muster in the provinces\u201d is a familiar pattern. Unless either
\n
- They are suppressed by main force, which would either result in the start of the long-planned shooting war or the suppressing troops defecting to them, or
\n- Existing governments convincingly crack down on antifascism, in the face of impending elections
\nI strongly expect they will attempt to seize control locally, purge their territories of what they take to be antifa, and begin to raise armies to retake the cities.
\nEveryone involved in leftist activism, known as leftists, media workers, nonprofit workers, visible minorities, as well as anyone who doesn\u2019t want to be around for this, in the Northwest outside of the I-5 corridor from Seattle to Eugene should have supplies and plans to relocate to it, by multiple routes. Alternately, if you are east of Idaho, consider taking refuge with the Mormon Church.
\nEastern Washington, rural Oregon, and Northern Idaho have well-developed alternative government structures already. Even in places where \u201coh those guys, but they don\u2019t run things around here\u201d, the people who \u201cdo\u201d have strong professional networks, those guys have guns and training and can press that advantage. Spokane, Kalispell, Whitefish, Sandpoint, even at extremes Missoula and Bend may not be secure.
\nPlan ahead. This is important. Reblog freely.

Took shit for this 6/10/22 post, and in retrospect yeah, I was kind of losing my mind to COVID of the brain at that point, but

Idaho really is congealing an alternative order these days
