pretty distressing shit on the surface, and also! if they thought victory was assured they wouldnt have to try and message it into reality like this. this is a think tank pivoting to a war propaganda posture believe them when they say it's war though. dont lie down and let them make it a massacre

And they absolutely WILL make it a massacre, first figuratively and second likely literally.

yes. when the gunman says "come with me and it doesnt have to be messy" the mess is absolutely in the second location and its time to live or die in the first one
And "the left" is basically anyone who isn't in lockstep with their fire and brimstone worldview.

I do not agree with your conclusions. It is very clear to me that they are not going to simply be stopped by Biden winning. Especially when the Supreme Court—which has the ability to nullify the election—is on Trump's side. They will massacre us regardless.

did i conclude "Biden winning will stop all of this" when i said "don't lie down and let them massacre you"? nope! i didnt mention Biden or voting in my post. you're arguing someone else's conclusion. maybe you can find the last post where you wanted to reply this and then reply there instead

i know you're struggling with not being a doomer so youre actually already on the right track because hope is a sturdy first step. it is hope that organizes us with our coworkers and even more crucially sometimes, our neighbors. the doom can impact how easily you can forge hyperlocal alliances

i hope you are taking care of your water levels and doing like a little chore in the morning to feel like a capable person. i struggle so hard in days when i am down in the doom at the expense of even the smallest things in my world i can change for the better. think i forgot to move towels to dryer

It might be good for mental health, but I don't see how self care is going to stop the people who want to kill us from taking the power that they'll use to kill us.

Unionize your workplace. I’m not kidding either. The only way through is together. Militant labor is the answer, because if you control the levers of production, you control the outcome

I'm unemployed and struggling to get disability. Also I'm googling labor history and it says fascists massacred a lot of them.

Yes, because they’re effective at fighting it! If your enemy knows its weakness, it’s on you to stuff your thumb deep into it
