Part of fascism — consolidating power in general — is ensuring that your opponents have no peaceful option left to regain power. If they resort to violence, it’s an excuse to destroy them. If they don’t resort to violence, there are still many ways to craft a casus belli to justify the purge.

We on the left spent decades trying to warn people about the fascists, but people are so incredibly stupid and hateful that they cheerfully handed over all the power to those monsters. Now it’s too late and violence is inevitable.

This is why we need every person on the right who's not too far gone to join us. Civil War will accomplish nothing accept hurting ourselves. It's us versus power not left vs right

I do think it's possible to vote your way into a situation you cannot vote yourself out of.

Like, for example, the way the system is currently setup gives much more representation (and therefore power) to smaller states. To change that, we would need to amend the constitution which would require a super majority. When have institutions willingly voted to give up their unearned power?

Whether people think it's necessary or not is irrelevant.

Fascism is an open expression of political violence. It needs violence, it creates violence, it supports violence, it thrives on violence.

Political violence is already here. It just may not have reached you yet.

TFW the people who support genocide try to lecture you about supporting violence.

The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants

-Thomas Jefferson

Not exactly a new concept.

The "majority" in the survey only think this because it hasn't impacted them yet. Once it does, they'll slowly come to terms with reality.

EDIT: I am of course, advocating for more Luigis. Just wanted to make that clear.

We need a general strike. The country would be brought to its knees if deprived of profit and labor. That tactic was extremely effective in Chile in 2019, and had they not fallen for the trick of liberal reform, they would've had a successful revolution on their hands with virtually no bloodshed.

If you aren't in a union (or even if you are, it's worth dual-carding), please consider joining the IWW to unionize your workplace (bonus: you'll get higher wages, better benefits, and more time off if you succeed!) to strengthen a general strike if we finally manage to enact one.

The UAW is planning one for May 1st 2028, but it could happen sooner.
