That worked out stellar for Weimar Germany, didn't it?
Unless you know nothing of the time before Hitlers rise to power and just how bloods it was.
you live in an interesting world, either you wait until some far right threat as built it's self up and radicalized, or do exactly that, but this time try to shoot first.
the whole idea of maybe there was a bunch of stuff leading up to the Nazis threatening to shoot you that you could intercede in, stopping the whole need for shooting in the first place apparently never crossed your mind.
Y'all love to larp when it comes to guns, but never hear about the community work you've done.
Do you think community work is where people go preach?
It's setting up a neighborhood pantry, showing up to community meetings, rendering aide to my unhoused brethren, helping the local maker space setup an electronics lab. None of that involves preaching.
And yes, the community work is going well. Does a lot to alleviate alienation under capitalism.
If you're planning to defend against fascism without setting up infrastructure to feed your troops then it's just a larp. Creating a sense of community is probably the best thing we can do to stem the rise of fascism.
