Feels like a prepper thread.
The war on Christmas continues.
-
Or it could get better if we fight for it.

Nah, we're in the "have get worse more slowly/reach the apex of shittyness sooner" phase. These are still important things, but it isn't getting better until the second era of fascism burns itself out. It took World Wars that devastated the most powerful countries on earth last time, and I doubt it will be peaceful this time around.
-
Some people just want to the world to burn, even as they claim they don't.
Where there's a will, there's a way. It is entirely plausible that major countries like the US will successfully repel long-term Fascism.
Trump's own supporters are turning on him. This is why things are getting more extreme. He is desperate to blame violence on the left, but the most hanous events continue to be far-right.
The Epstein list is also clearly creating cracks in his movement. And the attempt to silence Jimmy Fallon backfired as even his own staunch supporters pushed back, in addition to the caving of major corporations.
This is emphatically the WRONG time to discard hope.

You don't think they process of fighting for it to get better itself would be worse than what we're at now?
-

It will if you give up and let them do what they want lol
-
Any form of meaningful resistance will be met with brutal violence and repression, which doesn't mean we shouldn't do it, but it won't be pretty. A lot of people will die if we do a good job.

we have to find ways to restore the other side's empathy. it's the only thing that's worked for me.
I'm trans. I spent months talking with TERFs, long ago. it was horrible. but, I managed to make a connection with one of them. I described my experiences, my life, the feelings of dysphoria, the hurt from the hate.. she listened, and came to care about me, and left their hateful cult.
I repeated this with conservatives I met. taught myself to keep my cool, to be honest, to answer mocking with sincerity. I didn't try to be "one of the good ones," I didn't throw my sisters under the bus, I made it clear that most of us were like me - just wanting to live happy, fulfilling lives.
we need to make friends with enemies. even when they betray us and hurt us. it's dangerous but I can see no better way forward.

No matter how shitty today, it'll be the "good old times" somewhere in the (not so far) future.

Nothing like 40 years of political maneuvering and policy influence throughout a system of government to unravel.
Small consolation, while many work to also influence local offices and political bodies to properly prop up their power, it's also some of the easiest areas to get your foot in the door and make change yourself.
Hell, even under the Putin regime, opposition thrives in areas like schoolboards and townhalls, they tend not to be the ones thrown out windows. Just high enough to make a difference, too small to be noticed.
Lol unless the industrial complex keeps growing surveillance and monitoring without hard laws put in place, in which case oh well.
-
I don't feel like the opposition is thriving anywhere on a significant scale, tbh. Even small communities get scared away by class traitors

It's. And yes, even without Trump the foundation of our modern world, access to cheap energy and resources, is crumbling.
-
It's = "it is," while its = the subject's possession. The subject of fascism hasn't obtained possession of its peak. Isn't English absolute bullshit? 🙃
edit: I now realize you might be referring to the spelling in the comic, but my point still stands; English is bullshit
-
Bull'shit. And it's one of the simpler rules. Its == already possessive. Simple!
