Like Susan Collins, I shall furrow my brow to indicate my unease with the situation.

Kidding, sort of, if brownshirts and other government-sanctioned thugs show up in November, I'm really not sure what I'll do. They're already making noise about doing extra "Watching" of elections in my area (Fairfax County) and as far as I can tell, the only criteria for that is "they vote blue, so it must be fraud!"

It's a dumb question anyways. What any individual will do to resist is determined by the existence of a social movement, or lack thereof. You don't have to be willing to sacrifice your life or freedom in vain to contribute to that movement. It's a cynical framing by people who have been propagandized into hating nearly-powerless activists more than than the state, or even just support the state outright.
