Reminder that never before in the history of mankind has fascism stepped down when politely asked to do so.

It has always required force.

Fascism is here now because we, as an electorate, failed. And there's only one way to get rid of it.

They are probably planning something big (mass executions or something) for when Congress goes on recess. It's what I'd do if I were trying to overthrow democracy.

How likely do you think it is that she's on the chopping block farther down the line? I can already see how they would spin it now about her being anti American and a "Communist". They have already convinced the base that she is the devil incarnate.

Or, you know, rise up collectively and topple this craziness before it comes to the point of needing guns.

Not that I’m suggesting Americans do anything of the sort. It’s just that France managed to do it back in the day.

Is America ok about being completely out done by the French?

[-] [email protected] 22 points 3 days ago

Do You think that doesn't involve guns?

[-] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

That depends on hire long they wait.

Too late. We had that opportunity in November and failed.

Fascism is here, now, in America. That is undeniable. And fascism has never, ever in history, just given up and gone home when asked. It has ALWAYS required force. A lot of people probably aren't ready to hear this, but the only way this ends is with bloodshed. Probably a lot.

Unless you have other ideas. The only other one I can think of is a general strike. Shutting the country completely down until our demands are met. But that requires the type of solidarity you wouldn't even see in a functional society, which we are not. So that's not a realistic option.

Uh... the French Revolution had a lot of guns. Like seriously, look up the women's march on Versailles l, the fall of the Bastille, or all the insurrections.

[-] [email protected] 8 points 3 days ago

Did the French not use guns?

[-] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago

It seems so as well as other weapons. However, they were on more equal footing than the general population is now.

Most of the population of america does not have access to the ridiculous armaments or vehicles that the military or other armed forces have, nor the legal authority to use them. Such is the monopoly of violence.

If they want this to work they need to be clever, plan well and use violence tactically, have access to technology and knowledge that will aid them, and do good opsec.

Soooo. What's the best way to disable drones from a distance? Anyone know?

[-] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Either physically 😏 or with a long radio transmitter/jammer. 😉

Guns might be part of the solution (hopefully not), but coming out pistols blazing now would just help justify the orange clowns dance routine at this point I think. Give him and his cronies the political push they need to go full domestic military action.

If every American citizen stocked up, they still wouldn’t beat the American military. And Canada probably isn’t coming to help you after recent events.

It doesn't work like that. That's why the U.S. didn't achieve their goals in Vietnam and the Middle East.

You only need small arms to eliminate the higher ranking individuals to collapse the command structure.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 19 hours ago

Indeed, no need for large scale battles.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

We need a hostile foreign power with nukes to take us out before we hurt anyone else any worse.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

Just start with D.C. That would be enough to solve a lot of problems.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

But how could they pull such a thing off? Those roaches would scatter before anything lands.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago

And please spend time each week practicing with them.

They’re always loaded, pointed in the safest direction you can, finger off the trigger until you’re ready to fire, and before it goes on the trigger know what you’re shooting at and what’s around it.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

Yup.

Gun hating libtard here.

I'm buying guns and ammo.

Because I'm interested in history and history has shown us that force is the singular way to get rid of fascism once it takes hold.

The further we get into this, the more likely it is for the fascists to try to limit the purchase of firearms because that poses a threat to them. You'd think that would enrage their base, but not only will they have enough power not to care by then, but they'll probably propagandize their base into thinking it's a good thing.

Buy guns. Buy ammo. Help those close to you do the same. Start training with them.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

Gun hating liberal here that bought guns when Trump was elected the first time and been training since. Never to late to start.

[-] [email protected] 13 points 3 days ago

Sounds like there needs to be another Jan 6th.

[-] [email protected] 28 points 3 days ago

There's usually one every year.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

Yep.

But this time we topple a fascist authoritarian government instead of trying to stop the peaceful transfer of power after an election.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago

If only there were many examples from history of what happens next.

[-] [email protected] 8 points 3 days ago

so, next holocaust is gonna be immigrant latinos?

[-] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago

According to Laura Loomer, it's just Hispanics period. Right after the opening of that concentration camp, she made a "joke" post that "we're going to give those alligators 65 million meals" - 65 million is the population of Hispanics in America.

holy shit, that means they are talking openly about it now. god help all these people.

i take it miss laura there is a proeminent part of the trump admin?

[-] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago

No, she's just (for now) a talking head on the news. But that alone lends her significant voice in the Trump admin.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago

She is Trump’s side-ho.
