        Listening to the hosts of a lot of my podcasts talk about how “the next four years are going to be tough.”

        Bro, you have children and LGBT friends, are you being serious?

            That is incredibly naive. Just look at history. Fascists were always defeated by violent resistance. And nothing else.

            Those who claimed to fight them peacefully all shut up right when they got into power and only quietly showed their discontent behind closed doors, while they kept on living under the fascists. Many even came to support the fascists after it wasn’t so uncouth to do so…

            The people who were afraid of doing anything real at first, but certainly opposed fascism with their core, rose up and took arms against them when it became too much. Those were the partisans and their civilian allies in the cities and villages. And thousands and thousands died fighting the fascists alongside the Soviet communists. And that is the only thing that worked.

            Commenting on a website will never defeat fascism. If the “holy institutions” of democracy and liberalism failed, how could a silly tiny insignificant postboard succeed?
