Reminder that never before in the history of mankind has fascism stepped down when politely asked to do so.
It has always required force.
Fascism is here now because we, as an electorate, failed. And there's only one way to get rid of it.
They are probably planning something big (mass executions or something) for when Congress goes on recess. It's what I'd do if I were trying to overthrow democracy.
ICE = SS
If only there were many examples from history of what happens next.
How likely do you think it is that she's on the chopping block farther down the line? I can already see how they would spin it now about her being anti American and a "Communist". They have already convinced the base that she is the devil incarnate.
Buy guns while you can
And please spend time each week practicing with them.
They’re always loaded, pointed in the safest direction you can, finger off the trigger until you’re ready to fire, and before it goes on the trigger know what you’re shooting at and what’s around it.
Or, you know, rise up collectively and topple this craziness before it comes to the point of needing guns.
Not that I’m suggesting Americans do anything of the sort. It’s just that France managed to do it back in the day.
Is America ok about being completely out done by the French?
rise up collectively and topple this craziness before it comes to the point of needing guns.
Too late. We had that opportunity in November and failed.
Fascism is here, now, in America. That is undeniable. And fascism has never, ever in history, just given up and gone home when asked. It has ALWAYS required force. A lot of people probably aren't ready to hear this, but the only way this ends is with bloodshed. Probably a lot.
Unless you have other ideas. The only other one I can think of is a general strike. Shutting the country completely down until our demands are met. But that requires the type of solidarity you wouldn't even see in a functional society, which we are not. So that's not a realistic option.
Uh... the French Revolution had a lot of guns. Like seriously, look up the women's march on Versailles l, the fall of the Bastille, or all the insurrections.
Yup.
Gun hating libtard here.
I'm buying guns and ammo.
Because I'm interested in history and history has shown us that force is the singular way to get rid of fascism once it takes hold.
The further we get into this, the more likely it is for the fascists to try to limit the purchase of firearms because that poses a threat to them. You'd think that would enrage their base, but not only will they have enough power not to care by then, but they'll probably propagandize their base into thinking it's a good thing.
Buy guns. Buy ammo. Help those close to you do the same. Start training with them.
Gun hating liberal here that bought guns when Trump was elected the first time and been training since. Never to late to start.
Sounds like there needs to be another Jan 6th.
Yep.
But this time we topple a fascist authoritarian government instead of trying to stop the peaceful transfer of power after an election.
There's usually one every year.
so, next holocaust is gonna be immigrant latinos?
According to Laura Loomer, it's just Hispanics period. Right after the opening of that concentration camp, she made a "joke" post that "we're going to give those alligators 65 million meals" - 65 million is the population of Hispanics in America.
