Ben @spiderwolve.bsky.social · 10/04/2025A lot of people wringing their hands over something that hasn't and probably won't happen. Don't capitulate in advance. If you stay in your house because you think martial law is gonna be declared and it even hasn't, they don't need to declare it. Because you already have imposed it on yourself. 090
