US Authoritarianism

I appreciate your enthusiasm, and agree, that’s the times as they stand, there’s dozens of John Browns walking around among us, hundreds. Just, you know, remember he was coming off a lifetime of conducting on the Underground Railroad when he attacked Harper’s Ferry.

I think you're accidentally highlighting the problem. Everyone is waiting for someone else to do something because they don't want to risk what life/luxuries they have

the most important thing to do is to keep rallying other leftists to the same conclusion. we can't get locked into a echo chamber. we have to be spreading the word to others.

I really need you tonight!

we dont actually need adventurism to solve things.

Read up on the early days of the Nazis.

It's over. There are exactly three options that this can still be averted, and all of them get less likely by the minute:

• A military higher-up stages a coup. Private people are not powerful enough to stand against the military, so only the military can start a revolution with any chance of success. The military will not do so without a leader, so it would have to be a person in the top tier of command, and dissenting voices there are being replaced fast. As soon as they are replaced, that avenue closes permanently.
• Someone assassinates Trump. This can actually be done by a random person, but the chances of that are very slim with all the protection that he has. Even if this is successful, it's very likely that they'll just replace Trump with the next best fascist, who will then have a real vendetta against the remaining opposition.
• The US starts a war against some other country and loses it on it's own turf. For a fascist government do be toppled by a war, another country will have to successfully invade the fascist country. Currently, there's no military strong enough to do so. Neither Russia nor China have remotely what it would take to successfully invade the USA.

The much more likely scenario is that the USA turns into a fascist country and stays like that for the next 50-100 years until it is so run-down that it topples itself and everything just collapses USSR-style.

Yep we need a shit ton more Luigis unfortunately the left seem fine sitting on their hands. They think we can still vote (voting is over) or peacefully protest our way out of this. I will repeat what I said in another thread. Blood will need to be spilled. Either the right will continue to do so until they have full control or we will have to in order to put a stop to it.

For us someone will need to gun down and kill these so called ICE agents. Then maybe we can make it a norm. After all they have no badges, wearing masks, and are armed. Far as I am concerned if they come a calling they are just arm thug nazis and will be treated as such.
