When you comply you increase your tolerance for compliance and help normalize violations of important norms
That’s how even a little compliance helps usher in fascism
A little compliance in 1933 set the stage for the Holocaust.

AUTHORITARIAN KRYPTONITE IS NONCOMPLIANCE
the only thing they have is people choosing to go along with the ruse.

Even if he does it is worth resisting! I find all the talk of whether Trump’s power is legitimate baffling, honestly. He’s a straightforward authoritarian! The main reason to push back is all of the stuff he is going to do, not how his vote total stacks up to previous presidents.
Trump does not have a mandate.

“Once you decide that a single vulnerable minority can be sacrificed, you’re operating within a fascist logic,” they said. “That means there might be a second one you’re willing to sacrifice and a third, a fourth. Then what happens?”

This is a constitutional crisis: the President doesn't have the power to cancel funds appropriated by Congress. Also, the math is insane; there is NO way to cut $4B/day by getting rid of "fraud". Cuts of that magnitude will dangerously undermine the core functions of government.

A fun historical fact about the French Resistance during WWII is that none of those people were ever going to get a shot at Hitler.
They were, however, in a position to do something about the people Hitler relied on to carry out his orders.
This has been your random history fact of the day.
