    Acting as if fascists did not nearly successfully couped the last time they lost the election is so much denial.

    The people that voted last time got a goverment that could not stop a convicted felon, certified rapist, enemy goverment asset and obvious fascist from running again. They would not have been able to stop a fast nor a slow coup.

      You’re right.

      Why slow down the coup when you can just give up and let them announce a concentration camp for undesirable immigrants without any pushback?

        Step 1: should have voted to stop the coup Step 2: should have voted for a slow coup Step 3: should have voted for a less fascist coup

        We recreate the structures we seek to dismantle…

        Don’t @ me I voted but the Democratic playbook has been to cede ground and take only clout back my whole life.

        Like corporations and consumers the fault isn’t with the voter when the system is stacked against them and the options are two evils with one the lesser.

        No what I mean is that everyone who want to stop facism should stop relying on groups and organisations that have a record of being ineffective when it comes to opposing and stopping the fascists.

        Check out !inperson@slrpnk.net, !antifa@lemmy.ml and other Lemmy communities to find out about ways to oppose fascism without relying on the DNC.

          The US has been pretty good at opposing fascists in the past.

          We need the media to stop pussyfooting around and call a spade a spade. They’re working so hard to appear impartial that they’ve decided that reporting objective reality shows a liberal bias.
