    Politics isn’t gonna fix what is being undermined and dissassembled in our Democracy right now. Y’all keep coming up with pompous causes to distract people from REAL action. Fascists are my target from here going onward. I see or hear one and I react, with action. Enough discourse, we fight.

      Just so you know you can’t defeat fascism without defeating capitalism. I recommend reading “the economy and class structure of german fascism” and “fascism and social revolution”.

      In general individual action doesn’t really help address social problems.

      Politics isn’t gonna fix what is being undermined and dissassembled in our Democracy right now.

      I dont think electoral politics will work but you have to expand your definition of politics if you think electoral politics is all that politics is.

        Bullshit. The acquisition and accumulation of wealth is not a fascist construct. Yes rich people are fascists quite often but this stupid anti-capitalist rhetoric must stop. Whatya gonna do, abolish money?

              What do you mean? How do you keep using money after moving to a fully publicly owned, planned economy? You will still use tokens to exchange for goods from the public, but it wouldn’t be tradeable with others to prevent accumulation and profit.

          The acquisition and accumulation of wealth

          There is the problem, you don’t even know how to define capitalism. I would suggest reading “wage labor and capital” and “value price and profit”
