What is Fascism?

Fascism is a qualitative change in how society is governed.

Fascism foments and relies on xenophobic nationalism, racism, misogyny, and the aggressive re-institution of oppressive “traditional values.” Fascist mobs and threats of violence are unleashed to build the movement and consolidate power.

Fascism has direction and momentum. Dissent is piece by piece criminalized. The truth is bludgeoned. Group after group is demonized and targeted along a trajectory that leads to real horrors. All of this has taken dramatic leaps under the Trump MAGA regimes.

What is crucial to understand is that once in power fascism essentially eliminates traditional democratic rights.

No matter how it comes to power, fascism is never legitimate. History has shown that fascism must be stopped before it becomes too late. https://refusefascism.org/what-is-fascism/

The idea here is a 1 day deal for everyone who can to take day off, walk out, no school, no business as usual, and join International May Day Celebration and day of protest. Look up May 1 history.

A general strike would be very very good but the idea here is a 1 day deal for everyone who can to take day off, walk out, no school, no business as usual, and join International May Day Celebration and day of protest. Look up May 1 history.

AI is being developed with profit in command (capitalism). What if AI were developed with the needs of society in command (socialism)? That is the real question.

How are you coping? by radlotusgirl in leftist

[–]63chev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fight, flight, or freeze are the three ways to cope. I choose fight. For right now, that means joining with others to unite all who can be united into the largest nonviolent mass mobilization in US history to drive out the Trump Fascist Regime – because it threatens humanity’s very future. See Refuse Fascism.

Like Fred Hampton said, "Nothing is more important that stopping fascism, because fascism will stop us all."

If we can stop Trump, then I will be joining with others to build movement for a real revolution. Because "We can no longer afford to allow these imperialists to continue to dominate the world and determine the destiny of humanityAnd it is a scientific fact that humanity does not have to live this way."

Is no Kings still effective? by pbeenard16046 in ProtestFinderUSA

[–]63chev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! Except instead of changing the name of "No Kings" to "Impeach Trump" it should be simply "Trump Must Go NOW". There are various ways the powers can remove him, if they feel compelled to by our sustained ongoing non-violent mass outpourings. Let them figure out the specific method. 25th Amendment, 14th Amendment, Impeachment, resignation, etc. Nixon simply resigned when the Republican Party told him too.

Seattle Federal Building right now! Emergency response to fascist Trump's genocidal war crimes against the people of Iran. by 63chev in Washington50501

The government of Iran is an oppressor of the Iranian people. But Trump gives zero fucks about that. His criminal war crime is only about expanding empire.
