Yes, it's a global trend towards fascism. But there are still places more free than the USA, for now at least. Still, people everywhere need to fight back against fascism because there is no alliance of antifascist nations to save us this time. It will have to be overthrown from within each country.

    What do you expect me to do? 3D print a drone army? Design an empathy virus? "Accidentally" block the Suez canal in the hopes that the trade collapse leads to better conditions long-therm?

    Find other people who are organizing locally. Meaningful resistance is only possible when people work together.

    Ok, that's me first. But have to break out of my unholy work-life balance. Right now, I'm too distracted to do anything of meaning.

    Breaking out of wage slavery has meaning in itself. Lowering work time and lowering consumption is poison for capitalism. Moving away from the capitalist economy also helps(fixing stuff, foraging, direct trade with neighbors and so forth).

    Not saying it is easy or that anybody can just do it, but it is meaningful.
