We're already living under authoritarianism. It's not "coming" or "approaching" - it is here now. Lots of vulnerable people need help. These are serious times.

A constitutional crisis has already arrived!
Rising authoritarianism worldwide inspired me to write an allegorical trilogy on the perils of fascism: 1) unnecessary war, 2) failed democracy & resulting climate crisis, & 3) race-based subjugation. See The Antunite Chronicles. https://amazon.com/dp/B0B1JNBCTK?
We’re in a dictatorship. 100%—there is a dictator. The politicians sold us out, the rich sold us out. The dictator has coercive power. Anything can happen now.
As soon as the government started acting extrajudicially this was clear. As soon as it started kidnapping people & empowering a rando billionaire to start hacking (both senses of the word) & firing, this was clear. The gov't doesn't need to do it 64 times. It's not coming; it's firmly arrived.
Stand up and take care of your neighbor. You know who they are coming for first. How can you help? What would you do? Be Judge Hannah Dugan (Wisconsin) not Jamee Comens (Louisiana).
We’ve had authoritarianIsm since the beginning of our country: genocide, slavery, 100 years of racial terrorism after the Civil War, internment camps for both indigenous people and Japanese Americans, the red scares in the 1920s and 1950s. 1/2
And enough people in the USA decided it was OK to treat other people like crap. Oh, and 46 million people in the US have no access to clean drinking water. 2.2 million of those have no plumbing.

I think bc they think it “can get worse” or there’s “a worse version” they’re committed to this BS everything’s fine positive vibes attitude. Receiving MAY E 50% of funding if you agree to naziism isn’t a win it’s ::checks notes:: naziism.
Liberals / Democrat partisan have an interest in selling fascism as "coming" rather than already here as it is so they can continually (falsely) position themselves as the solution before it's too late
I decided to volunteer or work for a nonprofit. It is time to get serious about protecting infrastructure and networking in the community. Citizens should organize locally and prepare for the worst.
I get so annoyed when folks talk about fascism like its some sort of event horizon that is only approached asymptotically. People getting disappeared off the streets and there's still folks saying that america is "veering towards" fascism
It’s driving me crazy. I’ve seen people say, some action would precipitate a constitutional crisis. Then when that action occurred, they still say “it’s veering towards one.” We are a fascist dictatorship, but they won’t admit it until it’s themselves being sent to a camp.
Yes. We are currently living in an autocracy, with a shell of a democratic republic barely covering its ruthless destruction of our civil liberties, economy and free society.
Some ppl also need to stop pretending the authoritarianism isn't bipartisan. The Dems want the fear of arrests and deportations to silence the critics of our imperialism and our Israel policy. That's what Jeffries telling Dems to not go to El Salvador anymore is really about.
I keep listening with joy at how loud the resistance is right now. Every step forward is a step forward. 👏🎉 Let’s speaking loudly!—knowing many are having to work silently. 😔

I carefully told him, “It’s been here. It just didn’t arrive at the same time for everybody.”
He took a beat to think and went, “Yeah, that a fucking good point.”

Many keep thinking, "well if it was really that bad, 'they' would do something!".
Well, "they" are part of the problem too and "they" have no interest in saving us.
The oppressed, poor, downtrodden, new outsiders who came have been oppressed by our 1st World Privilege Entitlements long before now
One thing it will do is force each of us to feel some of the pain & gain empathy

If he can't kill us directly he'll do it
by taking our income, our homes
and if possible driving us all to what
amounts to a collective suicide.
That's what the Sociopath-In-Chief
wants for the United States of America.

I am so tired of them. When do they "resist"? Oh. They're not.
