“Don’t like fascism? Lock up your political enemies. Problem solved.”
The answer isn’t even voting. Voting is actually important in this scenario because, yes, you are actually voting to keep fascists from the door.
The actual answer isn’t electoralism at all—even if it’s important to avert the worst case scenario.
The answer is withholding what’s most valuable to them: your labor. General strike with a clearly defined goal and a pissed off populace is literally the most powerful tool we can harness.
Okay, so we agree that gulags are off the table, and you also think a general strike is off the table. I ask you again, what alternative solution are you offering?

Then you get full fascism
When 40% of the voting population wants fascism those are your options.

lol love it. Every single time without fail, people will find an excuse for why iT WoULd jUsT nEVeR wOrK HErE!
Although I will admit I haven’t heard this one before. Kudos for being original I guess?
You’ve never heard of strike breakers? Pinkertons? Battle of Blair Mountain?
I mean that’s just your own ignorance at this point
“You’ve never heard of water? Why would you start a fire?”
What kind of logic is that?
I’m not saying he’s right, I’m saying it’s absurd that you’ve never heard of the battles against unions in the US.

This is such insane logic.
“People will fight against you if you stand up for yourself. What are you thinking?”
Your suggestion is…what exactly? Don’t try to fight for what’s right because it comes with a cost? I just don’t understand people.

Horseshoe theory is more like pointing out the similarities between Hitler and Stalin.
