Resisting authoritarianism sounds harder than preventing it in the first place, and I am fundamentally a lazy person.

Like, overthrowing a tyrant will probably involve guns and bombs and sleeping in a ditch and hearing loss and limb loss. Preventing it in this case involves voting in the fall.

I get young peoples' anger over Israel, but I've been thru enough elections to know that u never really get a choice in American democracy. U always get 2 shitty options n it's always choosing the lesser of 2 evils. DT is uniquely awful n protest non-voting is not going to accomplish anything good.

With a military as large as the rest of the world combined, it is as terrifying as it is inevitable.

It's not just harder to fight than prevent, if we get there, there will be the crowds denying it's arrived, and those actively cheering for it. And without American hegemony like we've had for decades, many other countries will likely go down dark routes as well. The fascist push is global

The ship has sailed on that unfortunately.
