You are literally saying “let fascism come, I’m ready”.
Not everyone is. Your personal fight means nothing against the most powerful state in the world. You need a popular movement to just have a chance. Otherwise it’s just part suicidal doomerism part larp.
Fascists do care about winning, that is why they pump so much money into being elected, as elections are one of the most frictionless paths to power. That’s why they change the rules to make themselves more likely to be elected. That’s why they try to disenfranchise people who would vote against them. A coup is a risky thing, which is why they take all paths to power which are available.
You fight the cancer with everything you have or you die.
The problem is, you don’t have much. There isn’t a robust labor movement in the US which could provide a front against fascism. Any small scale or individual struggle might help you personally and save lives, but it’s not gonna stop the bus. At most it’s gonna pull some of the people from it before it drives of the cliff.
If you want to fight the guys who’re about to hijack the bus, you need time. As much time as possible to amass the response. Voting for shit burgers is just what gives you that sliver of it. This is the thing you keep doing to be able to keep going, not the saving grace.
There was actually a 19th century guy who noticed this and made up a hypothesis that the reason we see so many signs of long-term natural development of Earth’s features (canyons, mountains, etc.) is because God intentionally put fake evidence there, like he did with Adam and Eve’s belly buttons. I think he named his book Omphalos, which means navel in Ancient Greek.
Loving to see tankies come out of the woodwork to seethe and troll at this
Jokes on you, I’m not from America. I’m one of those people who will suffer from its fall to fascism, living on the imperial periphery.
