>If Donald Trump becomes US president again, then, unless we take action (dissolve the union?) then we'll all be complicit, even those that voted against.
You and I seem to share similar political views in that area, but this is fundamentally untrue.
>If I stand by in my liberal enclave, paying big national taxes, then, I'll be individually responsible.
As a US citizen who has felt uneasy about knowing where my taxes have gone both at the state and federal levels, I fully understand that I am not to blame. Neither are you.
>Unless they're actively sabotaging they are complicit.
