It really just seems like fearmongering about things most marginalized people go through everyday. Is it just the same” old things will continue to get worse as a result of everything infinitely growing” that’s been happening since the US was founded? I saw some goon from the heritage foundation go on tv and threaten leftists but idk if it has crazy uncle energy or whether that’s something someone with actual power is thinking

well that's just what reactionaries want. That's like opening State and Revolution and going, oh no the communists have a plan to overthrow the state. Its not really surprising at all; its just a new name for it i guess?

Right, except the left has a book they've never read, but the right behaves like they've read the book, implement its ideas, except for their own bourgeois revolution. They have the benefit of being part of the state already, they just need to access all the levers of power at the same time. Which they basically have right now. They call it a revolution too. What that means to them, who can say. Expect the anticommunist action though. Maybe pack a bugout bag and learn your exits. Maybe that's hyperbolic. Time will tell.
