    Just so you know you can’t defeat fascism without defeating capitalism. I recommend reading “the economy and class structure of german fascism” and “fascism and social revolution”.

    In general individual action doesn’t really help address social problems.

    Politics isn’t gonna fix what is being undermined and dissassembled in our Democracy right now.

    I dont think electoral politics will work but you have to expand your definition of politics if you think electoral politics is all that politics is.

    I think the correct thing to do to give yourself agency moving forward is to project blame onto 10 million people staying home.

    I think that this will let you further develop yourself and do the things required to meet your goals.

    What do you have agency over right now? Are you part of any democratically run political organization right now?

    but doesn’t history teach us that violent revolution more often just begets more violence than actually solves problems?

    Nope! Look at the life expectancy increases under socialist countries, they mathematically have less death!

    Also compare red terrors casualty numbers to standard operating casualty numbers. Like 20 million people die of capitalism caused deprivation a year worldwide today.
