The terrible thing is that I fear even this conversation would warrant arrest. We really are on the entering fascism and people, me included, are scared.

We are doing what we can, but we are at the mercy of a fascist trying to become a dictator. He's breaking laws and nobody knows how to stop him.

An executive order was signed that takes away government assistance for anyone involved in a "riot" which is going to be any peaceful protest that erupts after police instigate violence. They're going after the poor who protest.

Government officials trying to resist are being fired or put on leave.

Petitions, protests, community involvement, spreading information, buying a gun, everything short of throwing molotovs at government buildings.

Trump and Musk may be morons (though wily morons), but the hundreds of fascist lawyers, advisors and financiers behind them aren't. This is a full fascist reconstruction of the civil order. To put it off as foolery is not only dangerous, it fundamentally misunderstands how fascism works.

WE'RE FUCKING TRYING
