No, it isn't. There is no world where fascists with nukes go peacefully. You can only conjure narratives that manipulate what constitutes violence and when the "revolution" is contained to perpetuate the liberal myth that imperialism can somehow be reformed into something righteous and non-violent.
Foundationally, the United States is the most destructive, brutal empire the world has ever seen even if just by merit of the technological moment it has existed in. People have fought it and died in the millions -- whether in the imperial periphery or in the metropole -- and the consequences of a world battered by its interests will be incalculable. If tomorrow the fascists and capitalists gave up for no reason and went "peacefully," the process leading up that would still be the most violent in history.
Liberals will call tree spiking violence when the only consequence is a damaged logcutter and an invasion peaceful so long as it abides by their interests. Violence was indispensable in the production of every device that would be used during a "peaceful" revolution in the US, and I doubt people who want a peaceful revolution in the US would fight and die for forced labourers anywhere in the global south who certainly don't have peace as a vector of resistance.
None of this is suddenly peaceful because white people are threatened more than they used to be and now have to worry about having to fight for themselves. I am so goddamn tired of seeing liberals show up to antifascist resistance acting like they know better.
