This an old phrase that many ignore in the west because of it's implications, that people would rather accept a hostile invading force than one of Tyranny of their own making.
A thought experiment for anyone else reading this as this guy seems to be very obtuse. If you lived in one of the places in the west that was pretty much authoritarian or smothering in their demands (so your Canadas, Californias etc) and I invade with a military force, defeat the government so badly that your homes and businesses are untouched. I simply install myself in charge, demand less tribute (taxes) from you but ask nothing of you, no mandated speech, no medical mandates, not how your kids are taught or that you have to sacrifice your self defence, only that you don't resist or cause trouble for my forces, would you resist to reinstall the status qou?
