Went to bed outrageously pissed, woke up sad. Can't say it's an improvement.
Someone asked me a question that made my brain scream so for clarity:
I'm not telling you to go out and physically fight cops and nazis; I'm telling you to SHUT IT ALL DOWN - the fighting cops and nazis part will come naturally from there.
I refuse to believe your memories are short enough to forget 6 months of campus occupations and nation wide protests from 2020. Don't "march" - SHUT IT DOWN ffs.

They ain't gonna snap their fingers and suddenly the Gestapo is at your door. This machine requires a LOT of moving parts and a lot of compliance from the populace. You go after the machinery of capitalism and state; and no, it's NOT going to be safe, and YES it's going to cost you something, and YES they are gonna send goons - both with and without badges.
But this idea that nobody knows what to do is nonsense; we've done this in recent memory. Stop playing pretend with me.

Brey, if millions of people are in the streets, shutting down the machinery of capitalism and the function of state, occupying the centers of power and more specifically making it impossible for these jackasses to make money, you can grind this machine to a halt in less than six weeks.
But they will come for you. And they will deploy violence. And the microscopic American left is not gonna have enough people to do it FOR YOU by themselves.
You CAN stop this, but you need to risk something.

What the fuck do you folks think we mean by "become ungovernable?" They don't have enough cops to put a gun to EVERYONE'S head; but it takes everyone. Millions and millions of people, or they will isolate and eliminate any sort of resistance.
You give them nothing; you shut down traffic, corporate business, the police, the prison system, the government, military operations, weapons manufacturing, the offices of fascist politicians, EVERYTHING. You grind the machine to a halt with your bodies.

And again, don't tell me "that's hard" or "I'm scared" or "they'll arrest me" because that's a given. We are past the point where you can solve any of these problems without risk and pain. Either it's worth it to you, or learn how to goose step now and maybe carve yourself out a place in this fascist order because it's one or the other. Some of us however cannot join the nazis; so we'll fight, alone, and lose because the machine is NOT giving all of us the choice.

@AnarchoNinaWrites you're spot on.
You may already know it, but back in the 40s the US Army circulated a Simple Sabotage Field Manual which is quite an interesting historical artifact with absolutely no possible relevance or application to modern times.
Just wanted to mention it for historical purposes.

@pezmico @AnarchoNinaWrites Yes, just let me fetch that from CIA's site through my plain ole' ISP while surfing the fediverse under my true legal name...
