Not only has it been around since the 80s they’ve called anyone who proposes the Democrats should do something about it “psychotic”, “histrionic”, “overreacting”.

They only pretend to care now because it is a useful cudgel to try to scare people into voting for their competent blue fascist candidates. I know several genuine committed real leftists (anarchists) who intend to vote for Kamala even though they know she’s a fascist because they’re that afraid Trump is going to actually round up and kill leftists and trans people. One drew a parallel with Hitler – the German Communists viewed him as a buffoon whose incompetence would guarantee Communism a chance to rise in Germany, but instead the Nazis targeted and killed the Communists.

I don’t have a counter, I acknowledge things may go this way. But I still can’t do a damn thing about it; it would be a complete violation of my ethics to reward the Democrats for genocide and I still find the Democrats more frightening and competent agents of Fascism than the Republicans.

What is to be done? Organize locally and try to survive. Either way fascism is here.
