Oh, well I guess it's ok then. We'd all better contribute to that so they feel as threaten and emboldened as possible.
Learn your history. There is only one way that fascisms has ever been stopped. Spoilers, it’s not voting or protesting.
If by 'fascism' you mean a totalitarian government that has abolished any political opposition and consolidated control over there courts and security forces then I would have to agree. But if you just mean a hateful right wing government that does bad things then no, I do not agree. In fact, one of those was in power in the United States from 2016 to 2020 and they were defeated by... voting, not murder. You're not living in Nazi Germany, calm down and start organizing. But also buy guns, just in case.
You’re right, we aren’t in Nazi Germany, we are in pre-nazi Germany. Literally doing the exact same things they were doing. The holocaust didn’t begin with Jewish concentration camps, it started with queer folks and immigrants at the hands of a hateful right wing government that does bad things and was voted in by democratic processes. They even outsourced their first concentration camps, just like we are doing with El Salvador.
