I think using more words to describe what is happening would help. I'm not sure everyone really understands what fascism is. Maybe mix it up a little?
- authoritarianism
- trump and musk are dictators
- monarchy
- feudelism
A literal Machiavellian princely state.
One of the reasons Elon and his Dark Enlightenment techbros think everyone is stupid is because they can say things like "we want to break everything up into city states dominated by the local billionaires" and people still think DOGE is a reference to a fucking dog and not:
THANK YOU. This has been on my mind since DOGE was first brought up.
The Venetian doge crossed my mind as well thanks to Assassin's Creed.
Need to #'Muricanize it more
- Tyranny
- Redcoats
- "That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security." -Preamble to the US Declaration of Independence
Can you sing it for me?
🎶 "We the people..."
That is a great way to support it, but will people take the time to link it or explain it?
Maybe the biggest problem is that anyone who would educate themselves on anything in the first place wouldn't be supporting fascism. So the people who need to read it most won't care. The only thing that will stop their support is if they're personally hurt, and even then.
It took me a really long time to figure out what it really meant. I knew what it implied, but I hadn't been exposed to those aspects of history. I agree that well educated people probably know, that's why we should make it easier to understand.
