Where are the nationwide protests? The national strikes against the destruction of what is left of U.S. democracy? As for the eerie complacency of the Democrats, it is hardly surprising why there is such a huge loss of trust in the leadership of the Democratic Party.
Okay, buddy. As you wish. You’ll surely defeat the fascists with that go get 'em attitude.
Here’s the thing: nothing is going to effect change at this point short of civil war, and that doesn’t “just happen all of a sudden.” There’s going to have to be a period of civil unrest ahead of that, where some people - maybe you - are going to do legally questionable things. Setting fire to Teslas is already happening.
For civil unrest to progress to actual change, the few people who start it are going to have to get away with it. In order to do that, those people are going to need lower level support from other people, like looking the other way, not talking to
copsbastards, providing places to hide, providing materials. Eventually, those lower level things are going to have to develop into supply chain logistics, producing rations, medical supplies, 3dp weapons, all sorts of things I’m not even thinking of.But someone else might think of important and necessary things, and we want them to participate when they do. Being a dick about how other people “aren’t doing it the right way” (according to you) today will have a quieting effect on their desperately needed participation.
The more people who are pulling in generally the same direction, the better off we’ll all be, whether a particular individual is pulling a little or a lot or exactly the way you think they should.
So yeah, any way someone wants to pull in the direction of defeating fascism is welcome. Because it’s going to take a lot of people, a long time, and bloodshed.
