There is no rule of law, then what are we doing here? Why are we playing ball?
Ok, MAGA wants to burn it down. Good for MAGA, they still don’t get to decide for everyone.
I won’t be able to do this for long. Why aren’t we in the streets? What’s so great about your life that authoritarian rule is not a threat to you?
Yes, but also always has been. Times have been bad before and it wasn’t ideal a few years ago either. Keep your head low and push in the right direction, like many good people have done before us.
Your vote for the status quo has been registered, but please note the status quo has been a decade-long continuous slide into fascism, so that is what you will be cosigning by keeping your head down.
blablabla I meant push for good change however you like. Most people aren’t able to throw molotovs.
Push for good change like calling your congress person and complaining? Campaigning for a progressive candidate in the mid-terms?
If you’re going to pretend for youself like it’s 2016, then just spare us. Your silence would be better than lumping all direct action into throwing molotovs.
When you dismiss the option set rather than productively try to add to the option set, any rational person would rightfully question your actual intentions.
I can’t call my congress person, I don’t live in the US
Then maybe don’t tell someone who does live here to keep their head down. Especially if you’re from where I think you’re from. You should be exhorting us to learn from your history and to not let this overtake us - because the fascists will have learned from your history as well.
