They are here with an actual question, not a question that's actually a poorly covered statement. There is no need to act like they are your ordinary liberal.
The world cannot afford a fascist America. Imagine Hitler with nukes. The world will have to pay a much, much larger price as a result.
The only positive thing that I can think to pass on to folks, as a Burger-lander myself, is that it seems most of the fascists want to be at the top of the food chain too much to allow themselves to be ruled by anybody. Anybody with a small following seems hell bent on throwing all their supposed allies under the first passing bus if it gets them one rung higher than they were or if they can secure their own personal kingdom. World domination doesn't seem to be their goal. There aren't enough of them who want a "fourth Reich" so much as a pocket universe they get to live out their weirdo fantasies in like M. Knight Shamalyan's "The Village".
Thanks for all the comments, I will need to take some time to digest and process them all, but they’ve all been valuable.
I am however slightly dismayed by some who consider that leftist movement in the US is already a lost cause. Remember, anti-imperialism needs to take place from without and within. Nobody else can do it without also the comrades from within the imperial core.
First of all trumps a lazy incompetent moron so any grand overarching plan that doesn't directly benefit him is gonna fall flat in about 72 hours.
Second the only time dems actually oppose anything republicans do, even with empty gestures, is when they lose elections.
If dems win republicans will still do project 2025 except liberals will just scold you when you ask why they aren't doing anything, tell you you can't just snap your fingers and stop stuff you do t like, and tell you actually bidens doing great and if you say otherwise you're actually just a republican.
Lastly this, and particularly the whole "you have tonvpte dem or else there will never be another election is the EXACT SAME FUCKING MESSAGE DEMS TRIED TO SCOLD EVERYBODY WITH BEFPRE LOSING TO TRUMP IN THE EXACY SAME WAY. Then it was shown theybwere wrong that time. Now they're trying the exact same message.
And lastly I'm not more concerned with it then the dems are and dems are flat out refusing to even consider any of the half dozen compromises they could make to lock down the electi9n tonight.
If Joe Biden stopped sending amrs to Isreal, actually forgave student debt like he's been lying about for 5 years, or even send out rhe rest of that stimulus check he lied about during his last campaign he'd win by 10 points.
But they won't do any of those things so why am I expected to do more tongdt them elected than they are.
I am reminded of how the KPD getting its leaders murdered by Freikorps thugs during the Spartacist uprising (mind you, a much stronger party than any leftist movement in America today), and how its continued suppression paved the way to Nazi Germany.
You know who was in power in the Weimar government when this happened? Not fascists, not even far right conservatives like the modern GOP. It was social democrats - people significantly to the left of the modern Dem party. They got the Freikorps to murder Rosa and they literally appointed Hitler to power. Don't fool yourself that the Bidens of this country wouldn't do the same to an actual nascent leftist threat to the existing cryptofascist order.
