it’s more likely in the next few days that the fash will take the streets, especially as trump announces how he will contest the election. after all, chaos is his best bet for getting the powers that be to allow him to retain power without a fight. so don’t fucking tell people to stay home. it’s absolutely critical that everyone pays attention to what’s happening in their own backyards and steps up to engage in appropriate community defense.
the election is just a stage. stop confusing it with the conditions that compel people to act.
forget people rioting to install biden. I’m talking about fascists threatening a harder coup to make the pill of a softer coup go down more smoothly.
it’s not the coup itself that matters. it’s the power these paramilitaries build by getting to demonstrate force with insufficient opposition.
You fight them by writing letters and making phone calls so you don’t have to fight them with fists. You fight them with fists so you don’t have to fight them with knives. You fight them with knives so you don’t have to fight them with guns. You fight them with guns so you don’t have to fight them with tanks.
