Well-off liberals still, to this day, think that you can get rid of fascism with ridicule, clever takes, and refusing to pay attention to them. But those are rules for the boogeyman, not for real monsters. With real monsters, the only way to handle them is head on. Or head off, as it were.

1) Start prepping amap, from the standpoint that you are accruing to share/trade, not hoard.
2) Disconnect from every corporate system you can
3) connect to people powered systems
4) organize, literally, your people - know who's where & can do what & how to reach them
6) follow BIPOC leftists and learn
7) do digital/operational security as a matter of course
8) PLS leave Meta, esp fb and fb messenger
9) join values-aligned Discords, etc to build community on/offline
11) ignore calls to calm and electoralism
12) to the degree and manner you are able, prepare your body and mind
13) destruction will come on its own - what we must do is build
Many of us community-minded BIPOC, have been doing Mutual Aid, Bartering, etc...all our lives, your post is affirming.
We can't fire the first shots.
But get armed and trained ASAP.

On the plus side, the power struggle between him and 47 is going to come to a head at some point, mark my words.

What must be done now is revolutionary action. Even insurrectionary action. Like civil disobedience and blue state secession.
Deeds not words.
At least you’ve got your self righteous braying to keep you warm.
I fucking hate West Wing.

And then, lead the charge!!!
Where just waiting for our orders, Logan.
Time and place…
Round 2 is here. Come out swinging… hard!
But you're 100% right. At a certain point, the mockery needs to be delivered at muzzle velocity.
Assuming that any election from here on out will be fair is simply naive and contains zero knowledge of history.
Your answer seems to be to go to war with your fellow Americans on what a few have chosen to call fascism but is really freedom..
And the ones you want to fight for the most part have all the arms and training
In the wake of Reagan, the Dems lost their way. The Third Way is appeasement and agreement, not Progress.
If Democrat does it = illegal.
If Republican does it = legal.
There is no magic wand of presidential power.
If we surrender, they'll kill us.
Yet, they’re 100% sure the midterms will fix this. And of course, they keep insisting we must play nice and not scare the independents. FFS.
If every 'like' on these images was a person in the streets protesting in DC, Musk & his team wouldn't have been able to enter the buildings. [1/4]
If you see ICE, SAY SOMETHING to your community. Help your neighbors prepare. [2/4]
If you find a fascist rally, DROWN IT OUT! [3/4]
Your life and safety is on the line. Your future is on the line. Act like it! Don't lie down. Don't show your belly!
There's also a lot of people on here spreading DOUBT. "Why bother?" spreads like a virus. Stomp it out when you see it.
To see the truth one must be intelligent & brave. Ya'll ain't got it.
More Americans say it is acceptable to punch a Nazi than voted for Trump!!
IT IS "A LANDSLIDE VICTORY, POSSIBLE THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME!!!!!"
30% vote MAGA - Ignore them
30% vote Dems - Encourage them to action
40% don’t vote - Get just a few vote against MAGA fascism.
Use MAGA tactics to spread the real fear of fascism amongst non-voters. Some GOP politicians may even stand up to Trump & delay his agenda!
Here’s a plan!
The Liberty & Pursuit of Happiness of US citizens are now controlled by a dementia ridden sociopath.
THE TIME TO TAKE THE HIGH MORAL GROUND HAS PASSED - IT DID NOT WORK.
GOP politicians & billionaires must be more afraid of Dems than of Trump!
Republican Congressmen pleaded with Trump not to tariff potash. The dumbass Grassley didn't know/care it's Trudeau's retaliatory tariff, and Trump can't stop it if he continues his attacks on America's greatest ally.
Because I've had obvious non-affluent harassers that, at least, aren't MAGA (many Americans use liberal as a colloquialism for "the left") 🤷♂️
I'd say we should exercise our second amendment rights on Nazis but the prison sentence makes it harder to get more than one or two at a time (I am not advocating for murder i just hate fascism)
Defeating fascism will require some to sacrifice freedom or life.

What a silly world, eh?
I'm more of a 'punch them in the wallet' type'a guy, myself.
Elon, Bezos, etc..will take notice, then..rag-tag is jus piffle-dust.
Amazon workers all need to just stop,..walk out to the curb, and start a howl they'll hear on the Moon.
Pretending that you're gonna pull a Luigi and then not pulling a Luigi is the same shit you're accusing people of.
Start taking action!

I would like to not despair, but I just keep thinking, peaceful protests only work when your government is representative. 🤷🏼♂️
