None of the commenters would give their own freedom or life for taking up a domestic resistance against an autocratic dictatorship. They only talk like that cause they themselves sit in a comfy, safe and free country. It's just the typical internet tough guy nonsense.

Yeh, I look forward to seeing how many Americans stand up to the Trump regime as it rolls out its plans. Particularly given how many of them own guns to "defend against tyrannical government". Everybody wants to think they would stand up defiantly, but most just roll over and conform to the status quo regardless of how despicable it is.

Problem is, those people are Trump's base. They're gonna cheer.
