I sorta agree with this. I live in the Trumpiest state in this shitty union. I’m the most left leaning person on my block. I know most of my neighbors and they have gotten to like us. That said, there are some of them who I know would turn us in no matter what.

Doing the good work, comrade.

If they are in your home and you are at gun point, all you can do is play along and pray. Anyone saying otherwise is beating their chest or stupid.
If you were armed and responded with force, they will kill you. Period. Even if you manage to take down the initial force, you’re not leaving that house alive.
We need to do so many more things before the “they’re in my house with guns” stage.
Start by getting to know your neighbors. For real. If they are all right leaning, move. Surround yourself by like-minded people. Build mutual aid networks. They are far less likely to enter your neighbor’s home if you’re sheltering there, for example.
Have contingency plans on top of contingency plans. For example: you have a best case scenario fleeing plan. Decide where you’re going (ideally another country). Build out your time line, work on making it happen. Then plan less ideal ones all the way down to your “Anne Frank” plan. Who can you hide with long term?
For the Anne Frank scenario; what are your insurgency skills? You don’t have to be a fighter to be useful to your community. Learn, hone, and practice the skills that make you valuable to yourself and others.

Kill and be killed in this situation. Defending yourself is not going to win out in a solo situation.

There isn’t a well armed militia in my house.
Even one well armed person isn’t going to deter the 4-6 armed assholes they tend to send through your door.

Autist tran here. Shit’s hard, but there are so many parts of this world that are better for you being here.
